Abstract Synopsis

  • Confidence intervals and p-values are essential tools for evaluating scientific research, helping to interpret the significance and reliability of study results.
  • P-values determine whether to reject a null hypothesis, indicating if findings are statistically noteworthy, especially in exploratory studies.
  • Confidence intervals offer a range for the true effect size, providing insights into the effect's direction, magnitude, and clinical relevance, making it helpful to report both measures together.]
