To address the issue of multiple comparisons, significant cluster size was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation program (AlphaSim), with a cumulative proportion criterion of less than 0.05 [39].
To address the issue of multiple comparisons, for each analysis, the significant cluster size was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation program (AlphaSim) as previously done in our laboratory [37, 38], with a cumulative proportion criterion of less than 0.05 [39].
The results obtained, concerning the three types of buildings with three different proportioning criteria for the connections, are compared in terms of force displacement capacity curves, global ductility, maximum resistant ground acceleration and behavior factor q. The global ductility ranges from 1.8 to 2.4.
Rather, protocol implementation occurred more frequently when consequences were added, thereby increasing the overall proportion of criteria met.
The mean proportion of criteria suggesting a narrower study population was 9% (5%to13%3%, range 0-50).
The mean proportion of criteria suggesting a broader study population was 85%95%5% confidence interval 80%to91%1%, range 20-100).
Patient characteristics: inclusion criteria, proportion of patients with T2DM, mean age, proportion of men, BMI, baseline HbA1c, baseline fasting plasma glucose, baseline total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides and antidiabetic background treatment.
The following data will be extracted from included trials: Patient characteristics: inclusion criteria, proportion of patients with T2DM, mean age, proportion of men, BMI, baseline HbA1c, baseline fasting plasma glucose, baseline total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides and antidiabetic background treatment.
For each trial we calculated separately the proportion of eligibility criteria matching between protocols and publications (nominator) and all eligibility criteria defined in the protocol (denominator).
