In vancak/NNTcalculator: Calculator of unadjusted, adjusted and marginal NNT

MLE of NNT in equal sd Normal distribution

Description

Internal function. Not for users. Takes two numeric vectors of control and treatment results and returns the MLE of the Laupacis' type NNT for Normal distribution with equal variances.

Usage

mle_norm_eq_inc(
  treat,
  control,
  tau,
  yt_bar,
  yc_bar,
  s_ml,
  p_t.boot,
  p_c.boot,
  s_ml.bs,
  n_c,
  n_t
)

Arguments

treat	a numeric vector of the treatment arm results
control	a numeric vector of the control arm results
tau	a scalar that indicates the MCID
yt_bar	mean value of the treatment arm vector
yc_bar	mean value of the control arm vector
s_ml	sd of the the pooled variance MLE
p_t.boot	BS estimator of the sample proportion of success in the treatment arm
p_c.boot	BS estimator of the sample proportion of success in the control arm
s_ml.bs	BS estimator of the sd of the the pooled variance MLE
n_c	number of observations in the control arm
n_t	number of observations in the treatment arm
p_c	sample proportion of success in the control arm
p_t	sample proportion of success in the treatment arm

Value

MLE of the Laupacis' type NNT for Normal distribution with equal sd
