  • Caveat on the error analysis for stereological estimates
    Yang, Zhengwei ...
    It is frequently asked that how big a sample size, or how much measurement, isneeded to achieve an accurate stereological estimate. The observed total error of a stereological estimate arises from ... individual difference (i.e. inter-animal / organ difference or biological variation) and intra-individual variation (or the stereological error). Statistical methods for error analysisfamiliar to most biological researchers are based on independent random sampling, however systematic random sampling, which is usually more efficient, is almost always performed in practice. A number of methods for error analysis were utilized in a number of model and actual studies in this paper to demonstrate from a practical point of view the pros and cons of different error analytical rnethods. Assumption of independence for a systematic sampling will result in overestimation of the stereological error as shown by the studies. A simple and practical approach for error analysis asrecommended in this paper is to divide the systematic sample from an organ into two systematic sub-samples, regard them as two independent sub-samples and then compare the difference between the two sub-sample means.
