The correct statistical approach to assess this degree of agreement is reporting bland altman results not obvious. Correlation and regression studies are frequently proposed. However, correlation studies the relationship between one variable and another, not the differences, and it is not recommended as a method for assessing the comparability between methods.In 1983 Altman and Bland (B&A) proposed an alternative analysis, based on the quantification of the agreement between two quantitative measurements by studying the mean difference and constructing limits of agreement.The B&A plot analysis is a simple way to evaluate a bias between the mean differences, and to estimate an agreement interval, within which 95% of the differences of the second method, compared to the first one, fall. Data can be analyzed both as unit differences plot and as percentage differences plot.The B&A plot method only defines the intervals of agreements, it does not say whether those limits are acceptable or not. Acceptable limits must be defined a priori, based on cl

for the instrument and criterion shows a systematic proportional bias in the instrument's readings, even though none is present.  This artifactual bias arises in a Bland-Altman plot of any measures with substantial https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4470095/ random error. In contrast, a regression analysis of the criterion vs the instrument shows no bias.  The regression analysis also provides complete statistics for recalibrating the instrument, if bias develops or if random error changes since the last calibration.  The Bland-Altman analysis of validity should therefore be abandoned in favor of regression.

Reprintpdf· Reprintdoc·Spreadsheet·Reviewer's Commentary For comparison of one method with another, Bland and Altman (1986) advised researchers to use the two methods on a group of subjects, then plot the difference scores against the mean for each subject.  Such plots have become a standard accessory in validity or method-comparison studies, and their original paper has been cited over 9000 times.  In this article I use a spreadsheet to show that the plots can lead to an incorrect conclusion about the validity of a measure, and I urge researchers to use regression when comparing measures. Bland and Altman devised their plot to steer researchers away from what they considered was misuse of the correlation coefficient as a measure of validity. The misuse amounted to regarding the correlation coefficient as the most important or even the only measure of the relationship between two measures.  The problem with the correlation coefficient is that the two measures might be highly correlated, yet there could be substantial differences in the two measures across their range of values.  An appropriate comparison of the two measures needs to highlight such differences—hence the Bland-Altman plot,
