SAS vs. PHX [RSABE / ABEL]
❝ My PHX6.3 code gives for RSABE …
❝ boundy S²wr Swr PE 95% upper
❝ -0.221998 0.41138 0.64139 89.8990 -0.18424336
Just out of curiosity I tried my SAS macro and it only gives Swr, PE, 95% upper. They are the same as yours, which is slightly different from John's.
❝ ❝ I ran Unscaled Avg BE (Progesterone guidance SAS code)
❝ ❝ T/R Ratio 90% CI
❝ ❝ 101.021 80.7739 - 126.343
❝
❝ … and for ABE
❝ PE 90% CI
❝ 104.782 69.7855 – 157.328
Now, my average BE gives:
PE: 1.01021
, same as John's 
90% CI: 80.7733 - 126.3450
, different from both of yours. 
Weird.
❝ But: PHX’ LME kicked my ass with “Warning 11094: Negative final variance component. Consider omitting this VC structure.
” Nice. Old story with partial replicates – overspecified model since T is not repeated. We have seen in the past that SAS and PHX give different results in such a case. BTW, did you get “Convergence criteria met but final hessian is not positive definite.
” or somefink similar in Sas?
SAS did give me warning of " Convergence criteria met but final hessian is not positive definite".
❝ That’s funny! Same if I exclude subjects #14 and #31 (no results for T). What the heck?
after delete subject 14 and 31, same result for SABE but for ABE:
PE: 98.04322%
90% CI: 78.61817 - 122.26784
.Man, I never doubted the macro before. should I worry about it now?

Shall we compare the result from EMA's data set?
Edit:
Just tried EMA's 3-period data set, using "logdata" directly from the dataset.
SABE gives:
Swr=0.11397
PE=1.02264
95% upper= -0.00397289
ABE gives the same result as in the EMA's Q&A.
102.264 (97.05-107.76)
delete subject 5 and 8 (don't ask why those subjects)
SABE gives:
Swr=0.11803
PE=1.01341
95% upper= -0.00510258
ABE gives:
PE=101.218
90% CI= 95.7687 - 106.978
Can anyone check it?
All the best,
