Sample Size Calculation of Clinical Trials in Geriatric Medicine
A preliminary step when planning a randomized clinical trial (RCT) is the sample size calculation. This is the determination of the optimal number of patients which ensures an adequate power to the study to detect as statistically significant a certain ...

A randomised controlled trial investigated whether a computerised feedback device modified eating behaviour and resulted in weight loss in obese adolescents.1 The primary outcome was change in body mass index (BMI) from recruitment to 12 months. BMI was calculated as weight (kg)/[height (m)]2, adjusted for age and sex.

Sample Size Calculations for Ophthalmologic Studies
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1992Sample size calculations are shown for some common ophthalmologic study designs in which two treatments are to be compared. Included are the following three designs: 1, only one eye per subject; 2, both eyes, with each eye assigned to a different treatment; and 3, both eyes undergoing a common treatment.

Just like with continuous outcome data (Chap. 12), with binary outcome data an essential part of the study protocol is the assessment of the question, how many subject need to be studied in order to answer the studies’ objectives. This chapter provides equations that can be used for the purpose if your outcome data are binary.

Sample size calculations for evaluating mediation
Statistics in Medicine, 2008Abstract This paper presents sample size calculations for testing the mediation of the effect of a primary predictor by an intermediate variable. This problem is related to validating surrogate markers and to testing the effect of a primary predictor in the presence of confounders.

Proposals for Sample Size Calculation Programs
Methods of Information in Medicine, 2007Summary Objectives : Numerous sample size calculation programs are available nowadays. They include both commercial products as well as public domain and open source applications. We propose modifications for these programs in order to even better support statistical consultation during the planning stage of a two-armed
