Orthogonal regression is one of the standard linear regression methods to correct for the eeects of measurement error in predictors. We argue that orthogonal regression is often misused in errors-in-variables linear regression, because of a failure to account for equation errors. The typical result is to overcorrect for measurement error, i.e., overestimate the slope, because equation error is ...

In 2010, the World Health organization (WHo) reported that over the past 70 years the use and misuse of antimicrobials in human and animal medicine has led to a ‘relentless rise’ in the number and types of resistant microorganisms.

متن کاملUse and misuse of the p-value.

However, despite the numerous books and papers published on the basics of statistical inference and, thus, on the p-value, there still seems to be a need to highlight what message the p-value exactly contains (and what it does not). In this article, the basic concepts and the different misconceptions regarding the p-value will...
متن کاملUse and misuse of waterfall plots.
BACKGROUND "Waterfall plots" are used to describe changes in tumor size observed in clinical studies. Here we assess criteria for generation of waterfall plots and the impact of measurement error in generating them. METHODS We reviewed published waterfall plots to investigate variability in criteria used to define them. We then compared waterfall plots generated by different observers for 24 ...
