Abstract
Instrumental variable (IV) analyses are now a common causal inference technique used in the absence of randomized data. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) was first introduced in 1996. Therefore, calendar periods have been used as a proxy for ART use. However, ART use misclassification can bias IV analyses.
