For the purpose of illustrating the parametric and nonparametric prediction approaches, simulated data were created by the R (R Development Core Team 2008) package QTL Bayesian interval mapping ("qtlbim") (Yandell et al. 2012).
As a workaround, providers use IUDs packaged for interval insertions (insertions performed postabortion or any time after 6 weeks postpartum), which requires them to remove the IUD from the inserter sleeve with forceps before placing it at the uterine fundus.
Meta-analysis was not carried out because of wide variations of packages, time intervals and indicators used for outcome measures of interventions.
95%-confidence intervals for proportions (Wilson method) were calculated with the statistical package CIA confidence interval analysis from the book "Statistics with Confidence" 2nd ed.
95% confidence intervals were calculated using Wilson's method [ 28] with the statistical package CIA (Confidence Interval Analysis) [ 29].
Wilcoxon test as implemented in the R programming language was utilized, part of the "stats" package, with confidence interval 99% and alternative hypothesis being "greater" [74].
Subsequently, after a balance of the instrument for minutes to 37 °C, the HFP-t curves were recorded continuously by Thermometric AB program using the dedicated software package at an interval of 1 min until the curves returned to the baseline.
This package provides confidence intervals (CI) in the output (solutions within two log-likelihood units of the maximum likelihood), but the GMYC entity content of these solutions cannot be retrieved in the output at present.
The survival and interval packages in R were used to perform log-rank tests.
For plots produced by the plot.gam function of the mgcv package, Bayesian confidence intervals are used for plotting of the smooth terms, which can be obtained by simulating from the posterior distribution of the functional coefficients (or varying coefficients) [ 39] For model selection, esting between nested models was performed using anova(model 1,model 2, test="Chisq") [ 39].
