Two‐sided confidence intervals for the single proportion: comparison of seven methods

TL;DR: Criteria appropriate to the evaluation of various proposed methods for interval estimate methods for proportions include: closeness of the achieved coverage probability to its nominal value; whether intervals are located too close to or too distant from the middle of the scale; expected interval width; avoidance of aberrations such as limits outside [0,1] or zero width intervals; and ease of use.

Approximate is Better than “Exact” for Interval Estimation of Binomial Proportions

TL;DR: For example, this paper showed that using the adjusted Wald test with null rather than estimated standard error yields coverage probabilities close to nominal confidence levels, even for very small sample sizes, and that the 95% score interval has similar behavior as the adjusted-Wald interval obtained after adding two "successes" and two "failures" to the sample.

Nivolumab plus Ipilimumab versus Sunitinib in Advanced Renal-Cell Carcinoma

TL;DR: Overall survival and objective response rates were significantly higher with nivolumab plus ipilimumab than with sunitinib among intermediate‐ and poor‐risk patients with previously untreated advanced renal‐cell carcinoma.
