Desirability of Outcome Ranking Probabilities for 9 Randomized Controlled Trials for Complicated Intra-abdominal Infections
| Trial | DOOR Probability, %a | (95% CI)b | P Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | 50.3 | (46.9–53.7) | .836 |
| B | 48.3 | (44.5–52.2) | .386 |
| C | 47.7 | (44.1–51.2) | .196 |
| D | 48.3 | (45.3–51.4) | .279 |
| E | 48.2 | (44.5–51.9) | .337 |
| F | 49.7 | (44.4–54.9) | .897 |
| G | 47.4 | (43.2–51.7) | .234 |
| H | 50.0 | (44.9–55.2) | .990 |
| I | 48.1 | (44.0–52.1) | .349 |
Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; DOOR, desirability of outcome ranking.
The DOOR probability represents the probability of more a desirable result with study treatment relative to the comparator. A DOOR probability of 50% indicates no treatment difference; <50% favors the comparator; >50% favors study treatment.
A CI containing 50% indicates no statistically significant difference in the distribution of DOOR between the study treatment and the comparator arms.
