Article Abstract
The comparison of two quantitative measuring devices is often performed with the Limits of Agreement proposed by Bland and Altman in their seminal Lancet paper back in 1986. Sample size considerations were rare for such agreement analyses in the past, but recently several proposals have been made depending on how agreement is to be assessed and the number of replicates to be used. We have summarized recent developments and recommendations in various situations including a distinction between method comparison and observer variability studies. These include current state-of-the-art analysis of and reporting guidelines for agreement studies. General recommendations close the paper.

Comparative Safety of JAK Inhibitors vs TNF Antagonists in Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Diseases: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
JAMA Netw Open
September 2025
Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, University of California San Diego, La Jolla.
Importance: Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors are highly effective medications for several immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). However, safety concerns have led to regulatory restrictions.
Objective: To compare the risk of adverse events with JAK inhibitors vs tumor necrosis factor (TNF) antagonists in patients with IMIDs in head-to-head comparative effectiveness studies.
Predicting Remission in Schizophrenia Using Machine Learning-Assessing the Impact of Sample Size and Predictor Overinclusion.
Acta Psychiatr Scand

Department of Clinical Medicine, Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark.
Introduction: Machine learning studies sometimes include a high number of predictors relative to the number of training cases. This increases the risk of overfitting and poor generalizability. A recent study hypothesized that between-trial heterogeneity precluded generalizable outcome prediction in schizophrenia from being achieved.

Background: Radiotherapy is the mainstay of treatment for head and neck cancer (HNC) but may induce various side effects on surrounding normal tissues. To reach an optimal balance between tumour control and toxicity prevention, normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models have been reported to predict the risk of radiation-induced side effects in patients with HNC. However, the quality of study design, conduct, and analysis (i.

Background: Intensive language-action therapy treats language deficits and depressive symptoms in chronic poststroke aphasia, yet the underlying neural mechanisms remain underexplored. Long-range temporal correlations (LRTCs) in blood oxygenation level-dependent signals indicate persistence in brain activity patterns and may relate to learning and levels of depression. This observational study investigates blood oxygenation level-dependent LRTC changes alongside therapy-induced language and mood improvements in perisylvian and domain-general brain areas.
