Dear Chirag,

❝ […] does this apply to the untransformed or Ln transformed data

❝

❝ The ratios were fine with the Ln transformed data.

Raw data! You need the ln-transformed data only in the BE-statistics. You would have to calculate the difference of logs and backtransform to get % covered. Example:

AUC_t 375, AUC_∞ 500, covered: 100×375/500=75%.
lnAUC_t 5.9269, lnAUC_∞ 6.2146, covered: 100×ℯ^{5.9269–6.2146}=75%.

A ratio of logs (95.37%) is nonsense.
