🎙️ Live Reading Series – Biostatistics Article 6: Professor Konstantin Slavin reads aloud an article by Garston Liang, Quentin F. Gronau, and Alexander Thorpe which discusses the p-value, a fundamental concept in statistical analysis, and clarify what it can and cannot tell you about your data. Tune in to gain a deeper insight into the role of p-values in hypothesis testing and avoid common misconceptions. ✔️ YouTube Video: https://lnkd.in/eckes7f2 ✔️ Biostatistics articles on the INS website: https://lnkd.in/gtRmHVHT #neuromodulation #biostatistics #statistics

🎙️ Live Reading Series – Biostatistics Article 5: Prof. Konstantin Slavin reads aloud an article by Alexander Thorpe, Garston Liang, and Quentin F. Gronau which addresses Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves and the Area Under the Curve (AUC) in evaluating predictive models. ROC curves help determine how well a model differentiates between two outcomes, and AUC measures model performance. ✔️ YouTube video: https://lnkd.in/gwwChfJD ✔️ Biostatistics articles on the INS website: https://lnkd.in/gtRmHVHT #biostatistics #statistics #neuromodulation #INS #podcast

On today's minisode, Dr. Feroz Osmani shares his experience in interventional pain medicine, reflecting on his training and fellowship at the UChicago Medicine. He discusses the importance of patient selection for effective neuromodulation therapies, how patients can access optimal results, and the benefits of spinal cord stimulation for chronic pain. He also draws upon an example from his personal life that illustrates the direct impact of neuromodulation therapies for pain management and provides practical advice for new fellows.

🎙️ Live Reading Series – Biostatistics Article 3: Prof. Konstantin Slavin reads aloud an article by Garston Liang, Quentin F. Gronau, and Alexander Thorpe which addresses the use of N-of-1 trials in neuromodulation and personalized medicine. N-of-1 trials are a powerful method for investigating treatment effects on an individual basis, making them ideal for patients with stable symptoms and chronic disorders. The article also highlights the statistical considerations for analyzing N-of-1 trials, emphasizing the importance of proper design and analysis to ensure valid conclusions. ✔️ YouTube video: https://lnkd.in/gG3U5b5w ✔️ Biostatistics articles on the INS website: https://lnkd.in/gtRmHVHT #biostatistics #statistics #neuromodualtion #INS #podcast

🎙️ Live Reading Series – Biostatistics Article 2: Professor Konstantin Slavin reads aloud an article by Quentin F. Gronau, Garston Liang, and Alexander Thorpe on how to interpret risk ratios, odds ratios, and hazard ratios in clinical studies. These measures are crucial for understanding the effectiveness of treatments and the association between risk factors and outcomes. The article also discuss common misconceptions, such as misinterpreting odds ratios as risk ratios and hazard ratios as risk ratios, and provide practical advice for accurate interpretation. ✔️ YouTube Video: https://lnkd.in/gQCEB5vA ✔️ Biostatistics articles on the INS website: https://lnkd.in/gtRmHVHT #neuromodulation #biostatistics #statistics
