“…The adoption of these principles contributes to the improvement, the strengthening and the opportunity of sanitary surveillance actions with respect to the safety of the patient and the population. New analytical approaches using large data volumes, including data and text mining strategies and so-called "machine learning", are already a reality in pharmacoepidemiology and pharmacovigilance, 48 and are requiring new and dynamic approaches in causality 49 .…”

ABSTRACT:The article presents some considerations about causality in Pharmacoepidemiology and Pharmacovigilance. To begin, we provide a brief introduction about the importance of the issue, noting that the understanding of causal relationships is considered one of science's greatest achievements and has been, over time, a continuous and central concern of philosophers and epidemiologists. Next, we describe definitions and types of causes, demonstrating their influences on pharmacoepidemiological thought. After that, we present Rothman's multi-causal model as one of the founding explanations of multiple causality and the issue of causality assessment. We conclude with some comments and reflections on causality from the perspective of health surveillance, particularly with regard to regulations on pharmacovigilance.

Introduction: Case fatality rates (CFRs) and case recovery rates (CRRs) are frequently used to define health consequences related to specific disease epidemics, including the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aimed to compare various methods and models for calculating CFR and CRR related to COVID-19 based on the global and national data available as of April 2020.Methods: This analytical epidemiologic study was conducted based on detailed data from 210 countries and territories worldwide in April 2020. We used three different formulas to measure CFR and CRR, considering all possible scenarios.Results: We included information for 72 countries with more than 1,000 cases of COVID-19. Overall, using first, second, and third estimation models, the CFR were 6.22%, 21.20%, and 8.67%, respectively; similarly, the CRR was estimated as 23.21%, 78.86%, 32.23%, respectively. We have shown that CFRs vary so much spatially and depend on the estimation method and timing of case reports, likely resulting in overestimation.Conclusion: Even with the more precise method of CFRs estimation, the value is overestimated. Case fatality and recovery rates should not be the only measures used to evaluate disease severity, and the better assessment measures need to be developed as indicators of countries’ performance during COVID-19 pandemic.
