Sample Size Calculation and Power Analysis of Time-Averaged Difference

Sample Size and Statistical Power Calculation in Genetic Association Studies

A sample size with sufficient statistical power is critical to the success of genetic association studies to detect causal genes of human complex diseases. Genome-wide association studies require much larger sample sizes to achieve an adequate statistical power. We estimated the statistical power with increasing numbers of markers analyzed and compared the sample sizes that were required in cas...

Sample Size Calculation to Evaluate Mediation Analysis

Mediation analysis is used to review the comparative change in the amount of strength of association of the primary predictor with the outcome after adjustment for the mediator. Mediation models are very widely used in social sciences and biomedical sciences. Before conducting mediation studies, researchers want to know the sample size (i.e. number of subjects) required for achieving the adequa...

On power and sample size calculation for QT studies with recording replicates at given time point.

The problem of the impact on power and sample size calculation for routine QT studies with ECG recording replicates under a parallel-group design and a crossover design is examined. Replicate ECGs are defined as single ECG recorded within several minutes of a nominal time (PhRMA, 2003). Formulas for sample size calculations with and without adjustment for covariates such as some pharmacokinetic...
