7.6 Significance and ConclusivenessEXAMPLEThere are two treatments for raising iron levels in infants, a standardtreatment A and a new treatment B. A mean for treatment Bthat is 20 units greater than the mean for treatment A is recoginisedas a clinically important improvement which would lead to widespreadintroduction of treatment B. An experiment produces the followingmean differences, x B − x A , with a 95% confidence interval. Decidein each case whether the p-value is less than or greater than 0.05.Report whether the scientific result is conclusive or inconclusive byconsidering clinical importance.Results from multiple experiments(a) Mean difference = 40, confidence interval: (33,47).(b) Mean difference = 36, confidence interval: (18,54).(c) Mean difference = 27, confidence interval: (-4,58).(d) Mean difference = -7, confidence interval: (-55,41).(e) Mean difference = -12, confidence interval: (-34,10).(f) Mean difference = -13, confidence interval: (-19,-7).(g) Mean difference = 11, confidence interval: (4,18).130
(a) Mean difference = 40, confidence interval: (33,47).Significant, p-value < 0.05 (confidence interval does not includethe null hypothesis value of zero)Conclusive (confidence interval and point estimate in the directionindicating treatment benefit)Conclusion: Evidence the benefit is enough to be important.(b) Mean difference = 36, confidence interval: (18,54).Significant, p-value < 0.05 (confidence interval does not includethe null hypothesis value of zero)Conclusive (confidence interval and point estimate in the directionindicating treatment benefit)Conclusion: The new treatment is better than treatment A butthe difference may not be clinically important.(c) Mean difference = 27, confidence interval: (-4,58).Not significant, p-value > 0.05 (confidence interval includes thenull hypothesis value of zero)Inconclusive (confidence interval includes both zero and the clinicallyimportant difference)Conclusion: The new treatment is probably better than treatmentA but we can not completely rule out the possiblity that it isworse.(d) Mean difference = -7, confidence interval: (-55,41).Not significant, p-value > 0.05 (confidence interval includes thenull hypothesis value of zero)Inconclusive (confidence interval includes both zero and the clinicallyimportant difference)131
