Extreme weather events, including wildfires, are becoming more intense, frequent, and expansive due to climate change, thus increasing negative health outcomes. However, such effects can vary across space, time, and population subgroups, requiring methods that can handle multiple exposed units, account for time-varying confounding, and capture heterogeneous treatment effects. In this article, we proposed an approach based on staggered generalized synthetic control methods to study heterogeneous health effects, using the 2018 California wildfire season as a case study.

An increased neutrophil level in the blood is considered a risk factor for lung cancer (LC). However, establishment of causality is hampered by the inconsistent findings of observational studies. This study aimed to explore the causal association between neutrophil counts (NC) and LC risk in two populations via two-sample mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.
