日本語 term
有効率
日本語 から 英語
医療
医療(一般)
Hepatitis
source: インターフェロン単独治療での有効率 (ウイルスが完全に駆除される率)
Is is correct to translate 有効率 as response rate? While researching, I found terms such as sustained response, complete response, and it seems a little vague just to say response rate. Literally, it is "effectiveness rate" but is this term OK in this context?

日本語 term (edited):
有効率(ウイルスが完全に駆除される率)
Selected
response rate (ratio of cases with complete antiviral effect)
有効率 by itself would seem to be the same as "response rate" in English. However, by itself, "response rate" is quite vague, and only means "the ratio of cases where the treatment causes the desired beneficial effect."
In this case, the source text goes on to specify ウイルスが完全に駆除される率, which shows that the desired response is a complete antiviral effect.
This might also be called "effectiveness rate" or "efficacy rate". However I don't think it would be translated as "efficiency rate".
