Table 2.

Simulated power, in %, of a sensitivity analysis of combined evidence in a case-control study, where there is no unmeasured confounder and Pr(Zl=1)=1/3. The response is simulated from N(β,1) if Zl=1 and N(0,1) if Zl=0. There are 1000 narrow cases and 1000 marginal cases with 2000 controls. Based on 10.000 iterations. Fisher = Fisher’s combination method, tP = truncated product method with α˜=0.20
