A study of target effect sizes in randomised controlled trials published in the Health Technology Assessment journal
BACKGROUND: When designing a randomised controlled trial (RCT), an important consideration is the sample size required. This is calculated from several components; one of which is the target difference. This study aims to review the currently reported methods of elicitation of the target difference...
