There are many instances in which laboratory measurements have limits of detection, as often is the case for tear cytokine data. This poster details:

  • Description of commonly used methods for calculating summary statistics in the presence of non-detectible data
  • Comparisons of and biases introduced by each statistical method
  • Proposed method on how to handle non-detectible data such as tear cytokine data
