Pretest estimation in combining probability and non-probability samples

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Statistics, 2023
Multiple heterogeneous data sources are becoming increasingly available for statistical analyses in the era of big data. As an important example in finite-population inference, we develop a unified framework of the test-and-pool approach to general parameter estimation by combining gold-standard probability and non-probability samples.

Tools to improve the diagnostic accuracy of exercise electrocardiograms in patients with atypical angina pectoris

open access: yesTürk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2018
Objective: Although frequently utilized, an exercise electrocardiogram (ECG) provides limited diagnostic accuracy in patients with atypical angina pectoris. The purpose of this study was to determine the possible incremental value of pretest probability (

Pretest expectations strongly influence interpretation of abnormal laboratory results and further management

open access: yesBMC Family Practice, 2010
Background Abnormal results of diagnostic laboratory tests can be difficult to interpret when disease probability is very low. Although most physicians generally do not use Bayesian calculations to interpret abnormal results, their estimates of pretest ...
