Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, Series B, 62, 545-555. This read-counting method, as demonstrated in the results, has both high false positive and false negative rates. Statistical methods for rates and proportions. Or it could reflect a selective publication bias in the discipline - an obsession with reporting results that have the magic stamp of statistical significance. Asymptotic separability in sensitivity analysis. Simulation and data analysis show that information pooled across samples can help boost detection power compared to single sample analysis particularly in regions with rare proportion of carriers. The results for each study were analyzed using both life-table and crude-rate statistical methods. The primary objective of these studies was to evaluate the proportion of patients treated with HZT-501 (800 mg ibuprofen and 26.6 mg famotidine) or ibuprofen (800 mg) alone who developed endoscopically diagnosed gastric and/or duodenal ulcers during a 24-week treatment period. Joseph Fleiss, Statistical Methods for Rates and Proportions 21 (2d ed. Threshold with the ability to control the Type I error rate at a pre-specified level to identify significant shared change points across multiple samples and second, a permutation based method to identify recurrent change points (driver mutations as opposed to random passenger mutations). 1981).” Michael Finkelstein & Bruce Levin, Statistics for Lawyers at 121-22 (2d ed. This study concluded that slight difference was found between the positivity rate of HR-HPV infection detected by the HC-II and PCR assay in OSMF and OSCC cases and the HC II assay seemed to have better sensitivity in case of OSCC. Most likely it reflects a From the 36 journal issues Masicampo and Lalande identified 3,627 reported p values between .01 to .10 and their method was to see how evenly the p values were spread across that range (only studies that reported a precise figure were included). Level of agreement was calculated by both absolute agreement and Cohen's kappa statistic (k), a measure of the agreement between two methods in excess of that due to chance [22].
