Define: Sensitivity, False positives, Specificity, Accuracy, a
double-blind trial, an open trial, an interim analysis, and when to
use a Fisher exact test or a Chi-square test?
In the following scenarios identify the Reality, the test,
Sensitivity, Specificity, False Negative, and False Positive. Then
explain which is worse (if either) a False Negative or a False
Positive.
1. A Drug Test:

You are on the DSMB of a double-blind clinical trial of a
two-arm pharmaceutical intervention study with a time-to-event
outcome. A DSMB meeting will occur after the first third of the
participants are enrolled. Briefly describe two data summaries you
would expect to be reported on in the open session of a DSMB
meeting, and give a brief rationale for why the DSMB would want to
see those summaries
The drug ancrod was tested in a double-blind clinical trial in
which stroke patients were randomly assigned to receive either
ancrod or a placebo. One of the response variables in the study was
whether or not the subjects experienced intracranial hemorrhaging.
Of the 84 patients who received ancrod, 13 hemorrhaged. Of the 77
patients who received the placebo, only three hemorrhaged.
a.Is there a significant difference in hemorrhaging rates
between treatments? Show your work and include all steps for full...
