The impact of correlated exposures and missing data on multiple informant models used to identify critical exposure windows

“…In particular, HIV researchers are increasingly interested in evaluating how maternal trimester-specific exposures affect child health outcomes. These exposures during pregnancy include unsuppressed viral load (VL), 9 social determinants of health, 10 substance use, 11 and insurance coverage, 12 which are often included in regression models as binary indicators. Although there is extensive research on evaluating continuous exposures across exposure windows, [1][2][3][4][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] much less is known about the statistical properties of models evaluating binary exposure measures across windows of exposure.…”
