Weaknesses of the study include combining cancers with some disparate risk factors under a single outcome of upper GI cancer, although analyses were also conducted by cancer type.
Although used in the past [ 42, 43], we found that selecting maternal hospital records on a single outcome of delivery code (ICD10: Z37, ICD9: V27) to be inadequate and a much more comprehensive list was required (Table 2).
Patients appear to use comparative information only in certain circumstances, such as when there is a single outcome of major importance and the data can be easily understood, or in the absence of a meaningful and trusting doctor-patient relationship [ 16, 60].
As the data from Expedition 1 were available prior to the termination of Expedition 2, the primary outcome measures for Expedition 2 were changed to a single outcome of improvement in ADAS-cog14 in the mild AD patient cohort (MMSE = 20 26) measured at 80 weeks.
Without the use of a formal decision support method, it is generally impossible to simultaneously consider all aspects of such a decision problem, making it likely that too much emphasis is put on a single outcome of the translational research process.
For example patients appear to utilize information only if there is a single outcome of major importance and the data is easy to understand [ 18], many patients being insufficiently informed to utilize data for choice resulting in market failure [ 19, 20] and thereby reducing the potentially positive impact of choice on quality and service [ 17].

This indirect comparison suggested a greater effect of single dose on days 1 to 2 than on days 3 to 4. There was only one trial of multiple doses on days 1 to 7. We have shown a single outcome, percent of participants with microscopy or PCR-detected gametocytes on day 8, for this comparison as a representative outcome across the trials.
