Table 5.
Analysis of within-cat activity data ( n = 35), showing the number and percentage of cats in which hourly activity counts were significantly higher during either placebo (P) or robenacoxib (R) treatment for each method of partitioning the data.
Group | n (% of total) of cats with activity R > P | n (% of total) of cats with activity P > R | P value | Difference in response rates (R – P) | NNT |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Total mean hourly values, entire day | 8 (22.9%) | 2 (5.71%) | 0.058 | 17.2% | 5.83 |
Non-zero mean hourly values, entire day | 10 (28.6%) | 2 (5.71%) | 0.021* | 22.9% | 4.37 |
Dusk-to-dawn mean hourly values | 9 (25.7%) | 2 (5.71%) | 0.035* | 20.0% | 5.0 |
Non-zero mean hourly values, dusk-to-dawn | 6 (17.1%) | 1 (2.86%) | 0.059 | 14.3% | 7.0 |
