Dr. Seet-Lee and colleagues\n highlighted some inadequacies, specifically when using mean difference or raw mean\n difference as effect measure. However, when evaluating blood vessel density by\n different reliable and validated histological procedures, would it be wrong to\n assume, as we did, that all the obtained measurements from different staining always\n vary equally, directly and linearly, with the actual parameter under study? Are Dr.\n Seet-Lee and colleagues assuming that the results of histological observations of\n blood vessels, marked with different techniques and stains, are neither compatible\n nor governed by the same measurement scales? We regret, but we are firmly convinced\n that we proceeded properly. Moreover, we should not assume that standardized effect\n sizes will make comparisons meaningful 2.\n Particularly, as the standardized mean difference indicates the difference before\n and after the intervention in terms of standard deviations instead of actual scores,\n it assumes that different outcome scales are linear transformation of each other and\n the standard deviation (SD) is equal across all studies 3.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/a-1754-3377","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,1]],"date-time":"2022-03-01T23:33:15Z","timestamp":1646177595000},"page":"288-288","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Reply to the Letter to the Editor from Dr. Seet-Lee and\n Colleagues"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"43","author":[{"given":"M\u00e1rio","family":"Esteves","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Biochemistry and Experimental Morphology, CIAFEL, Porto,\n Portugal"},{"name":"Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Teaching Hospital of the\n Fernando Pessoa University, Gondomar, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Mariana P.","family":"Monteiro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unit for Multidisciplinary Research in Biomedicine, Instituto de\n Ci\u00eancias Biom\u00e9dicas Abel Salazar, University of Porto, Porto,\n Portugal"}]},{"given":"Jos\u00e9 Alberto","family":"Duarte","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Biochemistry and Experimental Morphology, CIAFEL, Porto,\n Portugal"},{"name":"TOXRUN \u2013 Toxicology Research Unit, University Institute of Health\n Sciences, CESPU, CRL, Gandra, Portugal"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/a-1533-1876.","article-title":"The Effects of Physical Exercise on Tumor Vasculature: Systematic Review and\n Meta-analysis","author":"M Esteves","year":"2021","journal-title":"Int J Sports Med"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"83","DOI":"10.1037\/h0027108","article-title":"Analyzing data: Sanctification or detective work?","volume":"24","author":"J W Tukey","year":"1969","journal-title":"American Psychologist"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"592","DOI":"10.1001\/archpediatrics.2011.97","article-title":"Arguments for and against standardized mean differences (effect sizes)","volume":"165","author":"P Cummings","year":"2011","journal-title":"Arch Pediatr Adolesc Med"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"e0229290","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0229290","article-title":"Effect of post-implant exercise on tumour growth rate, perfusion and hypoxia in\n mice","volume":"15","author":"L A Buss","year":"2020","journal-title":"PLoS One"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"e27835","DOI":"10.1002\/pbc.27835","article-title":"Vascular modulation through exercise improves chemotherapy efficacy in Ewing\n sarcoma","volume":"66","author":"MB G Morrell","year":"2019","journal-title":"Pediatr Blood Cancer"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"e1000097","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pmed.1000097","article-title":"Preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses: the PRISMA\n statement","volume":"6","author":"D Moher","year":"2009","journal-title":"PLoS Med"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"n71","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.n71","article-title":"The PRISMA 2020 statement: an updated guideline for reporting systematic\n reviews","volume":"372","author":"M J Page","year":"2021","journal-title":"BMJ"}],"container-title":["International Journal of Sports Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/a-1754-3377.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,1]],"date-time":"2022-03-01T23:36:42Z","timestamp":1646177802000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/a-1754-3377"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,3]]},"references-count":7,"journal-issue":{"issue":"03","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,1]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022,3]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/a-1754-3377","archive":["Portico","CLOCKSS"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0172-4622","1439-3964"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0172-4622","type":"print"},{"value":"1439-3964","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,3]]}}}
