Figure 4From: Bortezomib in late antibody-mediated kidney transplant rejection (BORTEJECT Study): study protocol for a randomized controlled trial Sample size determination and power calculation. Power calculation using five different assumptions of correlation in a covariance matrix. Simulation analyses using 100 permutations of randomly selected 2 × 22 samples of first and second transplants respectively from the Austrian Dialysis and Transplant Registry and the earlier described assumption underline the robustness of our analyses. Seventy-seven of the 100 permutations showed statistically significant delta estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) thresholds of 5 ml/minute/year. Ar1, first-order autoregressive model.Back to article page
