Hi Monica,

❝ Guess that was enough because I haven´t had any other comment.


Fine.

❝ Another question, Is it correct to use a reference with results out of the limits of IC 90%?, I mean not in 80-125% but with power > 80% for do the maths to get a simple size?


I’m not sure whether I understand you correctly: Do you mean a study where at least one of the confidence limits is outside the acceptance range (e.g., 99–127%)? You could never get a power of 80% in such a case. However, the formula still works.
