Matched pair analysis

It is also interesting to note that the big change in SAR occurred at sites of the molecule that probably are not consistent with easy library chemistry in all of these examples. A point should be emphasized that perhaps many molecules could have been made at the amide positions for 13 or 15 (perhaps the easiest chemistry to access), but the key changes occurred in the scaffold or the linker by addition of a methyl group. This is not to say that these amides should not be modified in a hit-to-lead campaign. In fact, they should but not at the exclusion of some systematic pair-wise modifications of scaffolds and linkers. 

Several papers have been published that catalog many of the most common matched pairs and their influence on various properties. A recent paper by Gillet at the University of Sheffield made a compelling case for the concept of context- 

Another example of small and educated changes resulting in significant improvement of the hit structure is shown below in Eigure 12.10 with the example of the cyclic acyldepsipeptides 17 that have potent antibacterial activity against Gram-positive pathogens [33]. The initial hit structure 17 proved to

Further analyses of large proprietary databases have focused on matched pair analysis of phenyl substituent effects on metabolic stability and on cytochrome P450, hERG inhibition, solubility and artificial membrane permeability." These studies also show that substituent lipophilicity is the dominant driver of ADMET properties. However, because of the opposing effects of physical properties (for example on solubility and permeability) there are no perfect substituents, where all ADMET properties are improved at...

After many years of debate and discussion, there is now an international consensus about the statistical approach and method to be employed in full collaborative trials This topic is discussed further in Section 9.5. The lUPAC protocol referred to above requires the analysis of duplicate test samples of the same material (a minimum of five materials or, exceptionally, three) in eight or more laboratories. However, there are many occasions where inter-laboratory studies are needed which, for various reasons, cannot achieve the prescribed criteria. In instances where the lUPAC criteria cannot be achieved, it is recommended that the Youden Matched Pairs procedure is used. The statistics of the method have been recently updated and a new procedure described. 

There are two forms of the f-test, and each is applicable for sets of measurements that have been obtained in different ways. The method of data collection precisely and uniquely determines which of these two forms of statistical analysis is appropriate. Section 7.6 introduced the independent groups Mest, which is appropriate for the analysis of data collected during a study employing a parallel group study design. Another form of the Mest is called the dependent measures t-test. This test is sometimes called the related measures Mest, the repeated measures Mest, or the Mest for matched pairs. The name dependent measures Mest has been chosen here since the contrast with the word independent in the name independent groups Mest is clear. 

The molecular recognition between mismatched (R,R)-29 and (S,S)-43 is less efficient compared with the matched pair complex. Even if the complex (R,R)-29 (S,S)-42 could be obtained in a crystalline form (Scheme 19), the X-ray analysis shows that one H-bond between the hydroxy and carboxylate moieties is lost and coordination has been achieved with two water molecules included in the crystal (Figure 52). The loss of such water molecules, for example after drying of the sample, determines the erosion of crystallinity. 

Parametric statistics (t-tests, ANOVA, discriminant analysis) are by far the most commonly used in studies of sensory-motor/psychomotor performance due, in large part, to their ability to draw out interactions between dependent variables. However, there is often a strong case for using nonparametric statistics. For example, the Wilcoxon matched-pairs statistic maybe preferable for both between-group and within-subject comparisons due to its greater robustness over its parametric paired i-test equivalent, with only minimal loss of power if data are parametric. This is important due to many sensory-motor...
