Non-inferiority margins based on varying standard deviations (SDs)

Standard deviation Non-inferiority margin on Log10 scale
Standardised standard deviation (SD = 1) on the Log10 scale  − 0.35 (Cohen’s d)
Assuming an SD of 0.6 on the Log10 scale [20]  − 0.21 (equivalent to a GMR of 0.62)
Assuming an SD of 0.2 on the Log10 scale [23]  − 0.07 (equivalent to a GMR of 0.85)
