Re: P - Values
Hi – The interpretation of whether a
finding is likely to clinically significant or not, is one of
key arguments for using CIs rather than p-values.
I don't think that CIs tell us more than P about clinical
significance (in fact, they are closely correlated). What tell us
about clinical effect are the outcome sizes (with or without
intervention). P and CIs only tell us about how much we can trust
the estimated effect size,
