特征值小于1的主成分的解释力还不如一个原变量,这使得它们无助于简化数据,往往被排除在分析之外。 在pca的输出结果中,特征根相当于被每一成分所解释的标准化方差(standardized variance)。有多少个变量(即由多少个成分(component)),标准化方差就是多少。如,有20个变量参与主成分分析(pca),总的标准化方差就是20。
作为Meta家族的一员,WMD(加权均数差,weighted mean difference)及其搭档SMD(标准化均数差,standardized mean difference)作为连续型变量的Meta的顶梁柱,虽然不为大众所熟识,但是在临床研究中依然举足轻重。 那什么时候用WMD/SMD? WMD,又称MD,当纳入Meta分析中所有的测量结局采用同一测度时,采用WMD作为效应尺度指标,每个...

For instance, from the plot, the estimated overall standardized mean difference is 0.08 with a 95% CI of [-0.02, 0.18]. Various heterogeneity measures and tests are also reported; we explore them below in Heterogeneity. For more interpretation of the results, see Basic meta-analysis summary ...
As the number of weeks increases, the overall standardized mean difference and its significance (p-value) decreases. Also seeCumulative meta-analysisin[META] meta. Back to top References Higgins, J. P. T., S. G. Thompson, J. J. Deeks, and D. G. Altman. 2003. Measuring inconsistency ...
rank test is combined with a new test derived from the maximal standardized difference in restricted mean survival time (RMST) between the trial arms. The test statistic is based on evaluations of the between-arm difference in RMST over several preselected time points. The combined test involves...
Standardized 标准化的指标就意味着 We can compare effect sizes across different studies that have measured different variables Or have used different scales of measurement (如:以 ms 为度量的 effect size 可以跟以心率为度量的 effect size 进行比较) All psychologists report these effect sizes in the re...
The Cox/log-rank test is combined with a new test derived from the maximal standardized difference in restricted mean survival time (RMST) between the trial arms. The test statistic is based on evaluations of the between-arm difference in RMST over several preselected time points. The combined...
A total of 26 studies were included. Overall, CST increased cognitive function (standardized mean difference [SMD]: 0.97; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.66 to 1.28) and decreased depression (SMD: −0.18; 95% CI: −0.33 to −0.04). No significant effects were found for neuropsychiatric...
