Optimal caliper widths for propensity‐score matching when estimating differences in means and differences in proportions in observational studies

Peter C. Austin · 28 Apr 2010

In a study comparing the effects of two treatments, the propensity score is the probability of assignment to one treatment conditional on a subject's measured baseline covariates. Propensity-score matching is increasingly being used to estimate the effects of exposures using observational data. In the most common implementation of propensity-score matching, pairs of treated and untreated…

Sample size of 12 per group rule of thumb for a pilot study

Steven A. Julious · 1 Oct 2005

Abstract When designing a clinical trial an appropriate justification for the sample size should be provided in the protocol. However, there are a number of settings when undertaking a pilot trial when there is no prior information to base a sample size on. For such pilot studies the recommendation is a sample size of 12…

Guidelines for accurate EC50/IC50 estimation

Jeanne L. Sebaugh · 7 Apr 2010

This article provides minimum requirements for having confidence in the accuracy of EC50/IC50 estimates. Two definitions of EC50/IC50s are considered: relative and absolute. The relative EC50/IC50 is the parameter c in the 4-parameter logistic model and is the concentration corresponding to a response midway between the estimates of the lower and upper plateaus. The absolute…

Use of historical control data for assessing treatment effects in clinical trials

Kert Viele, Scott Berry, Beat Neuenschwander et al. · 5 Aug 2013

Clinical trials rarely, if ever, occur in a vacuum. Generally, large amounts of clinical data are available prior to the start of a study, particularly on the current study's control arm. There is obvious appeal in using (i.e., 'borrowing') this information. With historical data providing information on the control arm, more trial resources can be…

Consequences of dichotomization

Valerii V. Fedorov, Frank Mannino, Rongmei Zhang · 3 Apr 2008

Dichotomization is the transformation of a continuous outcome (response) to a binary outcome. This approach, while somewhat common, is harmful from the viewpoint of statistical estimation and hypothesis testing. We show that this leads to loss of information, which can be large. For normally distributed data, this loss in terms of Fisher's information is at…
