Noninferiority testing in cost-minimization studies: Practical issues concerning power analysis
International Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care, 2006 Objectives:In cost-minimization studies, it is important to establish noninferiority in the clinical effect of the treatments under investigation. The relationship between the proportion of patients reaching the end point in a study, equivalence limit (δ), and power is investigated in the context of cost-minimization studies with dichotomous clinical ...

Effects of Biological Sex and Age on Cerebrospinal Fluid Markers—A Retrospective Observational Study
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis is a key diagnostic tool for neurological diseases. To date, only a few studies have investigated in larger cohorts the effect of age and biological sex on diagnostic markers extracted from CSF. Methods For this retrospective observational study, 4163 CSF findings (2012–2020) were evaluated.

CSF Monoamine Metabolites and Cognitive Trajectory in Early Parkinson's Disease
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Imaging and postmortem studies indicate that abnormalities in monoaminergic neurotransmission contribute to cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD). However, it remains uncertain if cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) monoamine metabolites can serve as biomarkers of cognitive decline in early PD.

Cost-Minimization Analysis of Risk-Stratified Hematuria Evaluation
Journal of Patient-Centered Research and Reviews, 2016 Background/Aims: Up to 30% of adults have hematuria; however, 5% or fewer have a significant finding such as bladder or kidney cancer. Current guidelines recommend cystoscopy and imaging for all who meet criteria; however, the guidelines acknowledge evidence gaps resulting in substantial unnecessary testing with adverse financial implications for ...

A Systematic Comparison of Alpha‐Synuclein Seed Amplification Assays for Increasing Reproducibility
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Seed amplification assays (SAAs) enable ultrasensitive detection of misfolded α‐synuclein across biofluids and tissues. Yet, heterogeneity in protocols limits cross‐study comparability and clinical translation. Here, we review α‐synuclein SAA methods and their performance across various biological matrices.
