A few exam tips specific to DNB Anaesthesia:
- The 2x2 contingency table is the backbone - learn it once and you can derive OR, RR, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV from it
- SnNout / SpPin mnemonics are frequently tested
- Forest plots - know how to read them (whether diamond crosses the line of no effect)
- For CONSORT, know the flow diagram stages by name
- I² > 75% = pooling data in meta-analysis is questionable
