Table 2 Comparison of mortality between males and females in a theoretical example
Outcome | Male (10 animals total) | Female (10 animals total) |
|---|---|---|
Baseline survival | 2/10 (20%) | 4/10 (40%) |
Baseline mortality | 8/10 (80%) | 6/10 (60%) |
Post-intervention — relative decrease in mortality | 50% | 50% |
Post-intervention — deaths avoided | 4 | 3 |
Post-intervention — absolute survival | 60% | 70% |
