Approaches to sample size estimation in the design of clinical trials—a review
Abstract
Over the last decade, considerable interest has focused on sample size estimation in the design of clinical trials. The resulting literature is scattered over many textbooks and journals. This paper presents these methods in a single review and comments on their application in practice.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
