equality of measurements from two different analytical methods. Application of linear regression procedures for method comparison studies in clinical chemistry
free download
Procedures for the statistical evaluation of method comparisons and Instrument tests often have a requirement for distributional properties of the experimental data, but this requirement is frequently not met. In our paper we propose a new linear regression
Haemolysis äs an interference factor in clinical chemistry
free download
Using fully mechanized analytical equipment, interference by haemolysis in the determination of 26 clinical chemical parameters was determined quantitatively by adding haemolysate to serum. Haemoglobin concentrations up to 6.6 g/l caused essentially no
A general regression procedure for method transformation. Application of linear regression procedures for method comparison studies in clinical chemistry Part
free download
The bioinetrical treatment of laboratory data require the estimation of a regression line for the transformation of one set of measurements to another. The regression procedure introduced in part I (1) of our work does not always yield unbiased results in such situations
A multivariate approach for the biometrie comparison of analytical methods in clinical chemistry
free download
The structural relationship model is recommended for the comparison of analytical methods in clinical chemistry . This model is based on the partition of the observed measurements of the different methods in 2 hypothetical random variables: the expected values, which
method comparison studies and determination of sample sizes application of linear regression procedures for method comparison studies in clinical chemistry
free download
In part I of this series (H. Passing W. Bablok (1983), J. Clin. Chem. Clin. Biochem. 2 709 720) we described a new biometrical procedure for the evaluation of method comparison studies. In part II we now discuss its properties and compare them with th se of other
Interpretation of clinical chemistry laboratory data
