Dear All,

As per the code defined in US FDA guideline we define ALPHA as 0.10 in ESTIMATE statement of PROC MIXED for replicate study designs.
While we do not define any such statement and use default ALPHA = 0.05 for non-replicate crossover studies with PROC GLM or MIXED procedures.
In both type of studies (replicate or non-replicate), we need to present 90% CI interval.

Can anybody please tell me the rationale behind this?

Thanks in advance...
