In a case study of four components of PM2.5 and measurement error corrected associations between these components and CIMT in the MESA cohort, corrected SEs corresponding to pollutants that exhibited significant spatial structure (i.e., Si and S) were 50% larger than naïve estimates, whereas corrected SE estimates for EC and OC were very similar to the naïve estimates.
The fact that the SE estimates from the parameter bootstrap using λ = 1 (which accounts for both Berkson-like and classical-like error) and using λ = 0 (which accounts only for Berkson-like error) were so similar further indicates that the larger corrected SE estimates were most likely a result of the Berkson-like error.
However, in spite of the added predictive variables, overdispersion (unexplained variation) remains a major feature, with the overdispersion corrected SE for the QUORUM model being on average 3.7 times the size of the uncorrected value (ie, the value not accounting for overdispersion).

For meta-analysis, the effect size for each SNP (odds ratio [OR] per copy of minor allele as per HapMap) was calculated using fixed-effects inverse variance models, synthesizing all effect sizes and the corrected SEs.
We found that we could mitigate this dilution effect by correcting Se concentration by haematocrit, which reduced the decline in the concentration of Se in the placebo group to 7%%.
We used the generalised estimating equations using an exchangeable correlation matrix with robust SEs in order to correct SEs for clustering.
Accuracy overall was higher for lip words (M = 80.6% correct) than that for tongue words (M = 73% correct) (SE of the difference = 2%).
18 Following Kish, 19 we accounted for the overlap in the samples being compared in calculating the correct SE of each difference.
LS: least squares; PERMP: Permanent Product Measure of Performance; PERMP-A: PERMP-Attempted; PERMP-C: PERMP-Correct; SE: standard error; SKAMP: Swanson, Kotkin, Agler, M-Flynn, and Pelham; SKAMP-A: SKAMP-Attention; SKAMP-D: SKAMP-Deportment.
Clearly, modifications have to be made to the standard formulas, to estimate the correct SE of the predicted values of a diagnostic index test from a nested case control study.
Minor alignment issues were corrected using Se-Al (Rambaut, 2000).
