Meta-analysis of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Head and Neck Cancer

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
This meta-analysis was performed in accordance with recommendations from the Cochrane Collaboration and the Quality of Reporting of Meta-analyses guidelines [44 (link),45 (link)]. The HR was used as a summary statistic for censored outcomes (OS, DFS, PFS, DSS and DMFS). HRs > 1 represented a poor prognosis in HNC.
Heterogeneity among the primary studies was evaluated by Cochrane’s Q statistic and the I2 statistic. A P value < 0.10 in Cochrane’s Q test or an I2 value > 50% indicates substantial heterogeneity among studies, so a random effects model was used to calculate the pooled HR and 95% CI in such cases. Otherwise, a fixed effects model was applied.
We used the mean sample size as the boundary between studies with large and small sample sizes. Subgroup analyses were carried out according to the immune checkpoint molecule, ethnicity, sample size and tumor location. Sensitivity analysis was applied to high-quality studies (NOS ≥ 7). Begg’s funnel plots were used to assess publication bias. All statistical analyses were conducted with STATA 12.0 statistical software (Stata Corporation, College Station, TX, USA). A two-tailed P value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

TGF-β1 Polymorphisms and GVHD Risk

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The associations between TGF-β1 polymorphisms and GVHD risk was assessed using odds ratios (ORs) and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) in donors and recipients, respectively. Dominant model was used in this meta-analysis, because most of the studies reported the results in this model. The heterogeneity of the included trials was assessed by the Cochrane's Q statistic for each meta-analysis. We carried out both fixed-effects (Mantel–Haenszel method) and random effects (DerSimonian–Laird method) models and producted the pooled HRs. In addition, subgroup analyses were performed to investigate the potential causes of heterogeneity according to ethnicity and HLA status. Publication bias was evaluated if more than ten studies were included. All analyses were performed by using stata 12.0 statistical software (Stata Corporation, College Station, TX, USA). All P values were two-sided.

Diagnostic Yield of EBUS-TBNA for Sarcoidosis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All statistical analyses were performed using Review Manager 5.2 statistical software and Stata 12.0 statistical software (Stata Corporation, College Station, TX, USA). We extracted the dichotomous data from the data presented in each primary study for each sarcoidosis diagnosis. We compared the diagnostic yields of the EBUS-TBNA and standard bronchoscopic modalities by calculating the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CIs for each study and then pooling the data using the random-effect or fixed-effect model to calculate a pooled efficacy and CI. We assessed the influence of statistical heterogeneity on the pooled estimates of the individual results using the I2 test. An I2 value of ≥50% indicated significant heterogeneity. A value of P < 0.05 was considered significant for the Chi-square test of heterogeneity. We performed sensitivity analysis in which a subgroup analyses of the retrospective studies versus nonretrospective studies (including RCT and prospective studies). Sensitivity analysis was also conducted in which the studies were grouped based on whether rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) had been performed. The presence of publication bias was evaluated by generation of a funnel plot, in which the OR was plotted. We also assessed publication bias via Begg's test and Egger's linear regression test using Stata 12.0.

Demographic Factors and Endoscopic Findings

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All analyses were performed using Stata 12.0 statistical software (StataCorp LP, College Station, TX, USA). Descriptive statistics were calculated for demographic features (sex and age). After generating descriptive counts and proportions for symptom variables, Chi-square tests were used to compare patients with different demographic features or symptom variables for diagnostic yield. Then, univariable and multivariable logistic analyses were performed to assess the relationship between demographic features or symptom variables and the presence of a positive endoscopic or histologic abnormality. Significance was set at p < 0.05.

Meta-analysis of Oncology Trials

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Pooled data management and analysis were performed using STATA 12.0 statistical software. We used the fixed-effects models (Mantele-Haenszel method) when there was a lack of heterogeneity (P >0.1 and I² <50%), and otherwise, we used the random-effects model (DerSimoniane-Laird method). The heterogeneity evaluation and the inconsistency statistic (I²) is explained as follows: I² = 0% indicates no heterogeneity, 0%

Evaluating SHOX2 Methylation as Lung Cancer Biomarker

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All data was managed by STATA12.0 statistical software (Stata Corp LP). The diagnostic sensitivity = true positive/(true positive + false negative), specificity = true negative/(true negative + false positive). The summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) cure was applied to evaluate the feasibility of SHOX2 promoter methylation as biomarker for lung diagnosis. Fagan's nomogram was used to investigate the post‐test diagnostic probability. Deek's funnel plot and line regression test were used to evaluate the publication bias. Two‐tailed p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

Sample Size Calculation for Diarrhea Intervention

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We based sample size calculations for both the baseline and endline surveys on ORS coverage because zinc coverage was very low prior to the MI–led project in Bihar. To calculate the sample size required at baseline, we assumed baseline ORS coverage of 20.9% based on a previously published survey among children with diarrhea in the last 14 days [9 ]. In order to calculate the sample size required at endline, we assumed ORS coverage would increase from the 19.7% observed in the baseline survey to at least 28.5%. We increased the endline sample size to 750 caregivers of a child 2–59 months of age (ie, 50%) to ensure a sample big enough to demonstrate what is still an increase of public health importance. The sample size calculations for both surveys were conducted using STATA 12.0 statistical software (College Station, Texas, USA), with standard statistical assumptions (ie, two–sided test; alpha = 5%; 80% power; and non–continuity) and were increased to account for within village clustering and a 15% anticipated refusal rate [10 ].

Prognostic Significance of VISTA Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The association between the expression of VISTA and patients’ prognosis was evaluated by meta-analysis by collecting data from all included studies. We calculated outcome endpoints including OS, DSS and TSS via pooled HRs and 95% CIs. HRs > 1 indicated a poor prognosis. The correlation between the expression of VISTA and the clinicopathological characteristics was evaluated by pooled RRs and 95% CIs. Cochrane’s Q statistic and the I2 statistic were used to assess the heterogeneity among the included studies. A random effects model was used to calculate pooled HRs and 95% CIs when there was substantial heterogeneity (Q test: P < 0.1 or an I2 > 50%). If not, a fixed effects model was used. Studies of high quality(NOS scores ≥ 7) were selected for sensitivity analysis. RevMan 5.3 and Stata 12.0 statistical software (Stata Corporation, College Station, TX, USA) were used to perform all statistical analyses. A difference was considered significant with a two-tailed p < 0.05.
