A tutorial on sensitivity analyses in clinical trials: the what, why
What is a sensitivity analysis in clinical research? Sensitivity Analysis (SA) is defined as "a method to determine the robustness of an assessment by examining the extent to which results are affected by changes in methods, models, values of unmeasured variables, or assumptions" with the aim of identifying "results that are most dependent on questionable or unsupported assumptions" [].

Sensitivity Analysis: A Method to Promote Certainty and Transparency in
What is a sensitivity analysis? Sensitivity analysis is a method used to evaluate the influence of alternative assumptions or analyses on the pre-specified research questions proposed (Deeks et al., 2021; Schneeweiss, 2006; Thabane et al., 2013).In other words, a sensitivity analysis is purposed to evaluate the validity and certainty of the primary methodological or analytic strategy.
5 Principles and Methods of Sensitivity Analyses
This chapter concerns principles and methods for sensitivity analyses that quantify the robustness of inferences to departures from underlying assumptions. Unlike the well-developed literature on drawing inferences from incomplete data, the literature on the assessment of sensitivity to various assumptions is relatively new. Because it is an active area of research, it is more difficult to ...

A tutorial on sensitivity analyses in clinical trials: the what, why
Sensitivity analyses play a crucial role in assessing the robustness of the findings or conclusions based on primary analyses of data in clinical trials. They are a critical way to assess the impact, effect or influence of key assumptions or variations—such as different methods of analysis, definitions of outcomes, protocol deviations, missing data, and outliers—on the overall conclusions ...

Sensitivity analyses are purposed to gain insight and certainty about the validity of research findings reported. Reporting guidelines and health research methodologists have emphasized the importance of utilizing and reporting sensitivity analyses in clinical research. However, sensitivity analyses are underreported in nursing and health research.

Background: Sensitivity analyses play a crucial role in assessing the robustness of the findings or conclusions based on primary analyses of data in clinical trials.

Sensitivity analysis in clinical trials: three criteria for a valid
What is a sensitivity analysis? Randomized clinical trials are a tool to generate high-quality evidence of efficacy and safety for new interventions. The statistical analysis plan (SAP) of a trial is generally pre-specified and documented prior to seeing outcome data, and it is encouraged that researchers follow the pre-specified analysis plan.
9.7 Sensitivity analyses
A sensitivity analysis is a repeat of the primary analysis or meta-analysis, substituting alternative decisions or ranges of values for decisions that were arbitrary or unclear. For example, if the eligibility of some studies in the meta-analysis is dubious because they do not contain full details, sensitivity analysis may involve undertaking ...

Choosing sensitivity analyses for randomised trials: principles
Sensitivity analyses are an important tool for understanding the extent to which the results of randomised trials depend upon the assumptions of the analysis. There is currently no guidance governing the choice of sensitivity analyses. We provide a principled approach to choosing sensitivity analyses through the consideration of the following questions: 1) Does the proposed sensitivity ...

Sensitivity Analysis in Observational Research: Introducing the E-Value
Sensitivity analysis is useful in assessing how robust an association is to potential unmeasured or uncontrolled confounding. This article introduces a new measure called the "E-value," which is related to the evidence for causality in observational studies that are potentially subject to confounding. The E-value is defined as the minimum ...
