Incorrect predictions, not incorrect statistics!
Page 1 of 1 (page number not for citation purposes) In a recent study on nurses’ ability to predict volume status after subarachnoid haemorrhage, we found very low predictive values [1]. In a letter to the editor, Dane [2] argued that an error in statistics ‘makes any reasonable conclusions impossible’. Because Dr Dane was the statistical reviewer of our manuscript, both the authors and the edi...
متن کاملThe Flat Earth Society: a rose by any other name?

Current dogma attributes to this marker the ability to determine the number of primordial follicles remaining in the ovary. The findings in this publication force us to reconsider this long-held view. I congratul...

متن کاملFuture of Earth Orientation Predictions
Earth orientation prediction has undergone a number of changes over the last few decades in response to changing conditions in the Earth orientation parameter user community. However, considering the recent pace of change, it is likely that the rate at which innovations are introduced into the prediction process will increase. Potential drivers for change are discussed and possible directions f...
متن کاملConserving Battery Energy through Making Fewer Incorrect File Predictions
Recent increases in CPU performance have outpaced increases in hard drive performance. As a result, disk operations have become more expensive in terms of CPU cycles spent waiting for disk operations to complete. File prediction can mitigate this problem by prefetching files into cache before they are accessed. However, incorrect prediction is to a certain degree both unavoidable and costly. Ba...
