Optimising statistical methodologies for estimating antimalarial efficacy for uncomplicated Plasmodium falciparum malaria by Dahal, P

“…Similarly, excluding patients with indeterminant outcomes (i.e. whether parasite recurrence is a treatment failure or new infection cannot be determined) was associated with an upwards bias in the derived estimate of efficacy by up to 1.7% compared to using the sophisticated methods of multiple imputation and inverse probability weighting for dealing with the indeterminant outcomes.</p> <p>This thesis highlighted that the choice of analytical approaches led to variability around the derived estimates of drug efficacy. …”
