Histological studies often involve analyzing tissue samples to identify cellular patterns, abnormalities, or responses to treatments. Ensuring high statistical power is crucial because:
Accuracy: High power reduces the risk of Type II errors, which occur when researchers fail to detect a true effect. Resource Utilization: Histological studies can be resource-intensive, involving significant time, cost, and effort. High power ensures that these resources are not wasted on inconclusive or misleading results. Scientific Validity: Reliable and reproducible findings are essential for advancing scientific knowledge and making informed clinical decisions.
