Bias parameter distributions for a probabilistic bias analysis of the relationship between positive bone margin and TMA healing (N = 41) stratified by current ulceration
| Bias Parameter |
Description | Min | Max | Estimate | 95% CI |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| p1 (%) | Prevalence of current ulceration among those with positive bone margin | 70 | 75 | ||
| p2 (%) | Prevalence of current ulceration among those without positive bone margin | 35 | 50 | ||
| OR | Odds ratio between ulceration and TMA | 0.04 | 0.0 0.79 |
Note: Monte Carlo sampling techniques (Lash et al., 2011) were used.
