However, sample size determination is not straightforward for mediation analysis of longitudinal design. To facilitate planning the sample size for longitudinal mediation studies with a multilevel mediation model, this article provides the sample size required to achieve 80% power by simulations under ...
PASS 2025 adds 37 new sample size procedures and includes a variety of enhancements. The new procedures include those for Logrank-type tests (8), the ratio of two recurrent event rates assuming the Andersen-Gill model (4), relative incidence (2), two proportions (5), two groups with ...
Thirdly, due to the limitation of sample size in air pollution GWAS, we chose p < 5 × 10−6 as the genome-wide significance threshold for air pollution-related exposures. Therefore, it is necessary to test the genetic relationship between air pollution and ADs in larger samples ...
PASS contains several procedures for sample size calculation and power analysis for regression, including linear regression, confidence intervals for the linear regression slope, multiple regression, Cox regression, Poisson regression, and logistic regression. Each procedure is easy-to-use and is carefully...
Because of the connection between sample size and power, sample size planning is sometimes called a priori power analysis. For example, if a new therapy developed to treat depression is truly beneficial, the sample size of a study assessing this therapy should be large enough to demonstrate the...

In order to reach a power of 0.80, results indicated a required sample size of N = 350 (under α = 0.05). Based on drop-out rates of similar longitudinal studies (Bardone-Cone et al., Citation2017; Boone et al., Citation2014; Smith et al., Citation2017), we aimed to ...
One-touch handling of blood samples for analysis is a reality with Tempus1800®. The samples are sent in the ordinary sample tubes with no packing and unpacking – this means that the person taking the blood sample is the only person touching it until it, is analysed at the lab. ...
P = 1.49 × 10−5). Multivariable MR indicated that the protective effect of relative carbohydrate intake on depression persisted after conditioning on other diet compositions. The mediation analysis via two-step MR showed that this effect was partly mediated by body mass index, with ...
