We construct interpretable prognostic rules based on a sequence of "box-shaped" regions in the predictor space indexed by the fraction of patients in the prognostic group. In addition, the method can be used as a building block to construct more general prognostic rules based on unions of boxes, or even as a tool to fi…

The optimal pacing mode for patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) following AV junction ablation remains the subject of some debate. Recent clinical trials have not demonstrated a superior advantage of maintenance of sinus rhythm over the rate control approach. However, clinical trials in pacemaker populati…

Serum responses to oral cholera vaccines were assessed in three paediatric vaccine trials, two in León, Nicaragua and one in Stockholm, Sweden. A calibrated anti-cholera toxin B subunit (CTB) IgA ELISA was used together with an assay for vibriocidal antibodies. Swedish children had lower pre-vaccination levels of…

Radiographic data of a 48-week double-blind, randomized, parallel trial comparing hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and sulfasalazine (SASP) and its open label extension to 3 years of follow-up are analyzed in various ways. The focus of the paper is the methodological issues involved in analyses of radiographic data in a trial.…

In this report, we examine the potential risk factors for both the incidence and the number of placebo adverse reactions among patients who were enrolled in the placebo control group in a multicenter clinical trial (n = 491). Of the nine baseline covariates analyzed, only clinical center was significantly related to bo…

The results of a 3-year parallel, controlled clinical trial comparing a capitation system of payment for the dental care of children with fee-for-service, showed that capitation offered dentists more clinical freedom. Dentists in capitation used this to provide more preventive care, particularly advice to parents on th…

We carried out a double-blind clinical trial in 30 patients who were sensitized to Bermuda grass pollen. Before and after immunotherapy we performed in vivo tests (skin tests and standardized tests of specific and nonspecific bronchial hyperreactivity), in vitro tests (histamine release), and specific IgE and IgG antib…

In a double-blind, crossover trial a controlled-release multiple-units indomethacin formulation (50 mg twice daily) was compared with conventional capsules (25 mg twice daily with 50 mg in the evening) in 12 young and 18 elderly in-patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Earlier findings that younger patients preferred a s…
