RE: Questions about Results

  • Perrine Quiniou, PhD, Université de Strasbourg, France
10 February 2021

I am a PhD student in Strasbourg, France, and I am carrying out a review of the literature on screening for presbycusis in general medicine. This article is interesting to me, but there are some dark sides to its results for me:
I don't understand how you get the data of the table 2 (referral rates off all patients). Overall, I don't understand how the baseline numbers are calculated. The explanation of the 14,411 total patients of the group "study period ( BPA Report)" is all the eligible patient during the study period, but others total numbers is unclear. Can you give me a explanation ?
Thanks
