When History and Heterogeneity Matter: A Tutorial on the Impact of Markov Model Specifications in the Context of Colorectal Cancer Screening
Townsley, R. M., Koutouan, P. R., Mayorga, M. E., Mills, S. D., Davis, M. M., & Hasmiller Lich, K. (2022, May 11). MEDICAL DECISION MAKING, Vol. 5.
author keywords: colorectal cancer screening; markov models; microsimulation
MeSH headings : Colonoscopy; Colorectal Neoplasms / diagnosis; Colorectal Neoplasms / epidemiology; Early Detection of Cancer / methods; Humans; Mass Screening / methods; Occult Blood
TL;DR:
Colorectal cancer screening trajectories and projected health outcomes were sensitive to the use of alternate Markov model specifications, demonstrating the importance of examining the memoryless assumption of the first-order Markovmodel when simulating health care utilization over time.

EVALUATING DIABETIC RETINOPATHY SCREENING INTERVENTIONS IN A MICROSIMULATION MODEL
2020 WINTER SIMULATION CONFERENCE (WSC), pp. 944–955.
TL;DR:
A microsimulation integrating the natural history model of DR with a patient’s interaction with the care system increased adherence of patients with vision-threatening DR to follow-up eye care, decreased the number of ‘unnecessary’ visits in specialty eye care from patients without VTDR, and decreased the total years spent blind.
