Basic sample size and power formulae for cost-effectiveness analysis have been established in the literature. These formulae are reviewed and the similarities and differences between sample size and power for cost-effectiveness analysis and for the analysis of other continuous variables such as changes...

The required number of events, sample size and power formulae are based on the non-centrality parameter of the logrank test under the alternative hypothesis which is a function of the gAHR. We use the web platform, CompARE, for the sample size computations. A simulation study evaluates the ...
In estimating the sample size for a case-control study, epidemiologic texts present formulae that require a binary exposure of interest. Frequently, however, important exposures are continuous and dichotomization may result in a not exposed category that has little practical meaning. In addition, ...
We give formulae for asymptotic power and for sample size computations and evaluate their accuracy via simulation studies. We compute the optimal allocation ratio between drug and placebo in stage 1 for the SPCD to determine from a theoretical viewpoint whether a single-stage design, a two-stage...
Statistical methods for evaluating the adequacy of sample size and power cater mainly to the testing for treatment difference in a `positive' trial. In biomedical research, the trial can sometimes be postulated as `negative' to demonstrate that the different treatment groups are statistically equivalen...
Methods of sample size and power calculations are reviewed for the most common study designs. The sample size and power equations for these designs are shown to be special cases of two generic formulae for sample size and power calculations. A computer program is available that can be used for...
2. POWER AND SAMPLE SIZE (PASS) SOFTWARE: As the name implies, the power and sample size calculator/software is a unique software that helps to calculate the power and sample size of a research/survey. Most times, researchers make the mistake of rejecting a true null hypothesis (Ho). T...
We present an explicit sample size formula for achieving a given false non-discovery rate while controlling the false discovery rate based on an optimal procedure. Sparse genetic variant recovery is also considered and a boundary condition is established in terms of sparsity and signal strength for ...
