Proc rank

Manufactured by SAS Institute

PROC RANK is a procedure in the SAS software suite that performs ranking and scoring operations on data. It can be used to assign ranks, percentiles, or scores to observations in a dataset based on the values of specified variables. PROC RANK provides a straightforward way to perform these common data transformation tasks within the SAS environment.

Piglet Growth Performance Protocol

For the performance evaluation, incidence of diarrhea, and economic analysis, the experimental units were represented by five piglets until 42 days of age and represented by four piglets after 42 days of age. For the other evaluated parameters, one piglet per pen represented the experimental units.
The results were analyzed using the Statistical Analysis System computer program (SAS Inst. Inc., Cary, NC, USA). The Shapiro–Wilk test was used to analyze the normality of the data and when they did not present this distribution, transformation was performed using PROC RANK (SAS Inst. Inc.). All variables were subjected to analysis of variance. When there was a statistical difference according to the F Test (p < 0.05), the Tukey test was used to compare the means.

Evaluating Data Normality and Variance

The Shapiro–Wilk test was performed to assess data abnormalities. When the data did not show abnormal distribution, data transformation was performed using PROC RANK (SAS INSTITUTE Inc. 2009).
All variables were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA). When a statistically significant difference was identified F-test (P < 0.05), Tukey’s test was performed to compare the means. Data were analyzed using the SAS software package, version 9.4 (2009) (www.sas.com) and the MIXED procedure.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
