The dramatic loss of statistical power when dichotomising continuous variables
Rev Neurol. 2024 Jan 1;78(1):27-29. doi: 10.33588/rn.7801.2023163.ABSTRACTA very common practice in medical research, during the process of data analysis, is to dichotomise numerical variables in two groups. This leads to the loss of very useful information that can undermine the effectiveness of the research. Several examples are used to show how the dichotomisation of numerical variables can lead to a loss of statistical power in studies. This can be a critical aspect in assessing, for example, whether a therapeutic procedure is more effective or whether a certain factor is a risk factor. Dichotomising continuous variabl...

Autism spectrum disorder: the impact of an online training strategy on the knowledge of the healthcare staff of a tertiary care hospital
CONCLUSIONS: Online training courses are a useful and effective way to increase knowledge about ASD and the adaptations that are recommended in the hospital setting. More training in ASD should be made available in these settings.PMID:38112651 | DOI:10.33588/rn.7801.2023244 (Source: Revista de Neurologia)
