The conduct of dose-finding trials can be specifically challenging in small populations, for example, in pediatric settings. Recently, research has shown that Bayesian borrowing from adult trials combined with appropriately robust prior distributions enables the conduct of pediatric dose-finding trials with very small…

The summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curve has been recommended as one important meta-analytical summary to represent the accuracy of a diagnostic test in the presence of heterogeneous cutoff values. However, selective publication of diagnostic studies for meta-analysis can induce publication bias (PB)…

PURPOSE: To provide estimates for the prevalence of dry eye disease globally and in sub-groups defined by: diagnostic criterion, sex, geographic location and age, using a Bayesian approach. METHODS: Modelling prevalence as a Beta distribution, estimates were inferred from Bayesian posterior distributions obtained by c…
