This text enables biomedical researchers to use a number of
advanced statistical methods that have proven valuable in medical
research, and uses a statistical software package (Stata® ) to
avoid mathematics beyond the high school level. Intended for people
who have had an introductory course in biostatistics, the volume
emphasizes the assumptions underlying each method, using
exploratory techniques to determine the most appropriate method. It
presents results in a way that will be readily understood by
clinical colleagues. Numerous real examples from medical literature
and graphical methods are used to illustrate these techniques.
