Domain-specific¶
- Attenuation Bias
- MacMahon and colleagues (Lancet, 1990) and the later Prospective Studies Collaboration estimated the reliability (the "regression dilution ratio") from repeat measurements in subsamples
This sourceReports that single-measurement (baseline) DBP substantially underestimates the true associations of usual DBP with stroke and CHD, and that correcting for this regression dilution bias raises the estimated associations about 60%.

“because of the diluting effects of random fluctuations in DBP, these substantially underestimate the true associations of the usual DBP”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This work's DOI is recorded above but has not been resolved against an external catalogue, so nothing here confirms the work exists.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
