Value

A list with the following components:

• power A list with the following components (all expressed as percentages):

  • target_power default = 90%

  • target_trend default = 5%

  • size default = 5% The power calculations are currently only applied to log-normally distributed data, which is why the trend is expressed as a percentage.

• recent_change A list with the following components:

  • n_year_fit default = 5L

  • n_year_positive default = 5L A recent change will only be computed if there are at least n_year_fit years of data in the recent period, of which at least n_year_positive contain at least one non-censored measurement. This only affects normally or log-normally distributed data.
