The lmdme package implements analysis of variance (ANOVA) decomposition through linear models on designed multivariate experiments in R (R Development Core Team, 2012), allowing ANOVA-principal component analysis (APCA) and ANOVA-simultaneous component analysis (ASCA). It also extends both methods with the application of partial least squares (PLS) through the specification of a desired output ...

Rather than investigate whether paternal leukocyte immunization improves the live birth rate in women with three or more abortions, we analysed the results of patients expected to have a poor outcome in a subsequent pregnancy if untreated, i.e. women with five or more abortions and no anti-paternal complement-dependent antibody (APCA) at initial testing. The analysis included the results of pat...
