Over-all rank tests for 1 to k matched continuous data in case-control studies. (English) Zbl 0557.62043

Summary: Over-all rank tests, for continuous data, are developed in order to combine individual test results in pairwise comparisons between cases and each of k control groups in a 1 to k matched design in case-control studies. Although the over-all-tests do not always have higher efficiencies than some tests which do not have the over-all-function, it is shown that the loss of efficiency would not be considerable.
