Fungal Infections Treatment Data
The fungal
data frame has 10 rows and 4 columns.
Clinical trial on the success of a particular treatment for fungal infections. The study was carried out in five different research units. Interest focuses on the treatment effect.
data(fungal)
This data frame contains the following columns:
success
the number of patients that benefited from the treatment;
failure
the number of patients with no benefit from the treatment;
group
an indicator variable for treatment (T
=treatment,
P
=placebo);
center
a factor variable indicating the research unit where the study was carried out.
The data were supplied by Sandoz Pharmaceuticals.
