    ..This work allows for adjusting and reducing the sample size according to the magnitude of the center effect and leads to a better consistency in the conduct of multicenter randomized trials...

    INSERM, CIC 202, Tours, France
    Am J Hypertens 22:718-22. 2009
    ..We aimed to assess, in a French multicenter cohort, the center effect associated with arterial pressure (AP) and ABI measurements using the reference method and using a semiautomatic device...

    INSERM, CIC 202, Tours, France
    BMC Med Res Methodol 9:39. 2009
    ..Such a clustering is usually assessed through the design effect, defined as a ratio of two variances. The aim of this work was to describe and understand situations where the design effect involves a gain or a loss of power...
