Dear All,
In counselling/discussing with patients about their individual risk is
confidential interval useful? I feel it is not since no one can really
understand the true meaning of " your risk is 30%, but the confidential
interval can be as low as 15% and as high as 45% while the actual final
outcome is you either get it or not get it". But CI is certainly useful in
a group situation to assess the accuracy of your estimation or your
treatment efficacy etc. Any comments?
Regards and Happy New Year to all of you.
