Comparing two Formulas of Sample Size Determination for Prevalence Studies
Background and purpose: Sample size and its determination is one of the most important problems in health researches. Calculating sample size for prevalence studies is one of the common questions of sample size topics. Minimum sample size with least complexity is desirable in order to achieve the basic goal of these studies. This study aims to compare two formulas of sample size calculation for...

Determining the amount of data to be collected is another important factor in this process. Choosing an appropriate set of individuals from which to collect biometric...
متن کاملSample Size Calculation for Comparing Variabilities
In practice, the variabilities of responses involved in clinical research can be roughly divided into three categories. They are, namely, intra-subject, inter-subject, and total variabilities (1). More specifically, the intrasubject variability is the variability observed by repeated measurements on the same subject under exactly the same experiment conditions. This type of variability is very ...
متن کاملSample Size Calculation for Comparing Means
Sample size calculation plays an important role in clinical research. In clinical research, a sufficient number of patients is necessary to ensure the validity and the success of an intended trial. From a statistical point of view, if a clinically meaningful difference between a study treatment and a control truly exists, such a difference can always be detected with an arbitrary power as long ...
متن کاملSample Size Calculation for Comparing Proportions
In clinical research, in addition to continuous responses, primary clinical endpoints for assessment of efficacy and safety of a drug product under investigation could be binary responses. For example, in cancer trials, patients’ clinical reaction to the treatment is often classified as response (e.g., complete response or partial response) or nonresponse. Based on these binary responses, the p...
