Statistical Analysis of Quantitative Data

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS for Windows, software version 21 (SPSS, Chicago, IL, USA). The Shapiro-Wilk test was used to examine normal distributions for all variables. Correlations were examined by calculating the Spearman’s correlation coefficient. Distributions of quantitative variables are described as means (±SD). Qualitative variables were summarized by count and percentage. Graphical displays were illustrated using GraphPad Prism (Graphpad Software Inc, San Diego, CA).

Reducing CRGNB Acquisition in ICUs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Based on the acquisition rate of CRGNB from 2016 to 2018 in ICUs of our hospital, we assumed a mean baseline incidence of CRGNB colonization or infection of 8 per 1000 patient-days; between-cluster variance would be 0.4, and the average amount of time a patient spent in the ICU would be 10 days. This study was designed to achieve 80% power for detecting a reduction in acquisition of 40% in the intervention period with a 2-sided type I error of 5%. According to these assumptions, the estimated sample size was 2400 patients (200 per cluster; a total of 12 clusters with one cross-over of 6 ICUs) [5 (link)].
Categorical variables were analyzed using the chi-square or Fisher’s exact test, as appropriate. Normally and non-normally distributed continuous variables were analyzed by Student’s t test and the Mann–Whitney U test, respectively. The primary analysis was a comparison of the primary outcomes between the intervention and control periods using an unadjusted Poisson regression model according to the mITT. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS for Windows software, version 21 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) and MedCalc Statistical Software version 18.10.2 (MedCalc Software bvba, Sotend, Belgium) with P < 0.05 considered statistically significant.

Statistical Analysis of Normal Data

SPSS for Windows software, version 21, was used to analyze the data using statistical significance p = 0.05. The Shapiro‒Wilk test was used to check the normality of the data, which was greater than 0.05, so the data were normal, and parametric tests of analysis were used. The frequencies and percentages are given for qualitative data. The quantitative data are presented as the mean and standard deviation. An independent sample t-test was employed to measure between-group changes.

Active Surveillance for CRGNB in ICUs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We conducted a pragmatic, cluster-randomized, nonblinded cross-over study in the included randomized ICUs between June 2019 and June 2020. We included 6 adult ICUs in a tertiary care hospital, Seoul, South Korea: two medical ICUs (23 beds), two surgical ICUs (26 beds), a cardiac ICU (16 beds), and a cardiothoracic surgery ICU (15 beds) in a tertiary care hospital. The study was approved by the physicians and nurse team leaders of each ICU and the institutional review board (IRB no. 2019–0274). The requirements for informed consent were waived. ICUs were randomly assigned to perform active surveillance testing (intervention) or use standard precautions (control) during the initial 6-month study period (period 1), followed by a 1-month washout period, and alternative during the second 6-month period (period 2). Randomization of ICU was performed by SPSS for Windows software, version 21 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). The microbiology laboratory processed surveillance specimens using standard culture-based identification of CRGNB. Patients with histories of CRGNB colonization or infection were placed under contact precautions at the time of admission.

Attitudes of Medical Students Towards CAM

This was an observational, institutional based, cross-sectional study among undergraduate medical students. It was carried out in a medical college in Majmaah, which is a small town in one of Riyadh region's provinces in the center of Saudi Arabia. It lies 180 kilometers from the capital city of Riyadh.[26 ] The CAM module was introduced in the college curriculum as an introductory course for seventh-semester students.
This study was conducted on two batches (2014 and 2015) of 3rd year (seventh semester) students (total = 70) who had completed the CAM module. All the students (both batches) of the seventh semester who were enrolled for the CAM module were included in the study.
All the students of the seventh semester who had studied the CAM module were included. A complete enumeration method was used to collect the study samples from among both batches. The total number of students who participated in the study was 70.
The data were collected with the aid of:

A pretested, structured and semi close-ended questionnaire completed by the study participants

An investigator was available to assist the participants in understanding the questions.

SPSS for Windows Software, Version 21 (SPSS, Chicago, Illinois, USA) was used to enter and analyze the data. Statistical analysis was undertaken to assess the significance of the findings from the qualitative data collected during the study.

Multivariate Statistical Analysis of Clinical Data

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Data were performed using SPSS for Windows software, version 21 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA), and Prism software (GraphPad Software version 5.01). All data were presented as the median (Q1, Q3) or mean ± standard deviation (SD), as appropriate. Changes in the indexes at different time points were evaluated by repeated-measures analysis of variance. The association between variables was assessed by means of Pearson's correlation. A chi-square test for comparison between two independent samples. All analyses of significance were two-tailed, and P value of less than 0.05 was identified as statistical significance.

Statistical Analysis of Treatment Response

Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS for Windows software version 21.0 (IBM Corp, Armonk, NY). Data are presented as the number (percentage) for categorical variables and as the mean ± standard deviation (SD) for continuous variables. Differences were evaluated using Fisher’s exact test for categorical variables, whereas an independent two-tailed t-test was used to evaluate differences in continuous variables. Only those variables with P<0.05 in univariate analyses were included in the multiple regression analysis for treatment response. A two-tailed P-value <0.05 was considered significant.

All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS for Windows software, version 21.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). Independent sample t-tests and normality tests were used to evaluate the correlation of TIL levels between groups. Fisher’s exact test was applied to assess the correlations between the two groups and their clinicopathological parameters. A p-value < 0.05 was considered significant.

Statistical Analysis of Experimental Data

Results are presented as the mean±SD. No significant deviations from gaussian distributions were seen for any group using the Shapiro‐Wilk test. However, by Levene's test, there were deviations from homogeneity of variance (heteroscedasticity) for some group comparisons. For group comparisons showing no significant heteroscedasticity, the 2‐tailed Student t test or 1‐way ANOVA was performed; for group comparisons showing significant heteroscedasticity, the Welch test and the Brown‐Forsythe test were performed. For comparisons of ≥3 groups, post hoc pairwise comparisons used either T tests with Bonferroni correction or Tamhane's T2 test when there was significant heteroscedasticity. P<0.05 was considered to be significant. Statistical analyses were performed with SPSS for Windows software, version 21.0 (IBM Corp).

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.
