Cost-effectiveness ratios and net-benefit statistics will be calculated.
Table 3 presents incremental cost effectiveness ratios and net benefit statistics for the primary clinical outcome namely, adverse perinatal outcome avoided for low risk women.
Bootstrap simulations will be used to estimate cost effectiveness acceptability, net benefit statistics and the likelihood that group psycho-education is cost effective compared to group support.
Decision uncertainty was examined by estimating net benefit statistics and constructing cost effectiveness acceptability curves across cost effectiveness threshold values of between £0 and £100 000 for the health outcomes of interest.
In the municipality approximately 14% of the population was foreign-born, the unemployment rate was 7%, while 9% of the inhabitants received sickness benefits or activity compensation and about 1300 individuals received welfare benefits (Statistics Sweden, 2011).

Consistent with this view, a recent study has shown that regions that are differentially methylated between normal and cancer tissue appear to be highly variable in cancer itself, and that identification of cancer-relevant markers may therefore benefit from statistics that measure differential variability [ 3].
