In statistics, net efficacy adjusted for risk (NEAR) is a measure that combines measure of efficacy and risk into a single metric.[1][2] For example, the relative risk of efficacy can be combined with the relative risk for drug toxicity into a single NEAR RR. Alternatively, the odds ratio of efficacy can be combined with the odds ratio for drug toxicity into a single NEAR OR.
Using the second table, let b1+c1+d1 = S1 and b2+c2+d2 = S2. Then
The 95% confidence intervals can be calculated by the method of Boada.[1]
