“The influence of control group reproduction on the statistical power of the Environmental Protection Agency’s Medaka Extended One Generation Reproduction Test (MEOGRT) data for simulations” Dataset
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency —
Excel spreadsheet that contains the raw fecundity data used to conduct power simulations specific to the MEOGRT reproductive assessment. This dataset is associated... -

The use of percentage change from baseline as an outcome in a controlled trial is statistically inefficient: a simulation study
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
Background Many randomized trials involve measuring a continuous outcome - such as pain, body weight or blood pressure - at baseline and after treatment. In this... -

Prominent medical journals often provide insufficient information to assess the validity of studies with negative results
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
Background Physicians reading the medical literature attempt to determine whether research studies are valid. However, articles with negative results may not provide... -

Analysis of proportional data in reproductive and developmental toxicity studies: comparison of logit transformation, arcsine square root transformation, and nonparametric analysis
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency —
We conducted power calculations to compare different approaches (nonparametric, arcsine square root-transformed, logit-transformed, untransformed) for analyzing... -

Debate: Subgroup analyses in clinical trials: fun to look at - but don't believe them!
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
Analysis of subgroup results in a clinical trial is surprisingly unreliable, even in a large trial. This is the result of a combination of reduced statistical power,... -

How many replicates of arrays are required to detect gene expression changes in microarray experiments? A mixture model approach
U.S. Department of Health & Human Services —
Background It has been recognized that replicates of arrays (or spots) may be necessary for reliably detecting differentially expressed genes in microarray...
