Tiivistelmä	Machine learning-augmented sensitivity analysis combines flexible ML estimators with formal robustness checks to assess how much unmeasured confounding would be required to overturn a causal finding. Rooted in Chernozhukov et al.'s double/debiased ML framework and Cinelli and Hazlett's omitted-variable-bias sensitivity tools, it delivers both high-dimensional covariate adjustment and transparent communication of remaining uncertainty about unobserved confounders.	Instrumental variables (IV) is an econometric method to estimate causal effects when treatment or exposure is not randomly assigned and confounding is severe or unmeasured. IV relies on a third variable (instrument) that influences treatment but does not directly affect the outcome, allowing researchers to isolate the causal effect from the noise of confounding. Developed extensively in econometrics (Angrist & Pischke, 1990s–2000s), IV methods are increasingly used in health economics and health services research to leverage natural experiments and policy changes.
