Sierra Club has found that the fully recognized and allocated outcomes of rail transit are, in general, vastly better for the environment than are the outcomes of road projects [13].
Whereas patients and exercise specialists were aware of the allocated intervention, outcome assessors and data analysts were kept blinded to the allocation.
The authors allocated the listed outcome measures to the ICF components by linking these outcome measures to the most precise ICF category.
The 5 elements were, the type of population or patient pertinent to the question, the intervention, the comparative intervention, the outcome of interest, and the time allocated for measuring the outcome or outcomes of interest (P, I, C, O and T respectively).
Sufficient time should be allocated to enable outcome measurement to occur.
Intention-to-treat analysis of the main trial outcome included all randomly allocated participants with available outcome data.
Retrieved articles were assessed for eligibility, and two reviewers independently abstracted descriptive data on the subjects, type of intervention, infants allocated as control, outcomes and methodological quality of the articles.
The maximum number of points available also varies by indicator, with more points allocated to intermediate outcomes indicators (for example, blood pressure control) than to monitoring indicators (for example, blood pressure measurement).
We further assumed that male patients were 1.2 times more likely to have missing outcome; patients allocated to the control group were 1.3 times more likely to have missing outcome; patients whose BP was not controlled at baseline were 1.4 times more likely to have missing outcome than patients whose BP were controlled at baseline.
There was no evidence of effect on the primary outcome by allocated treatment at 12 mo (mean difference: −0.2 mV; 95% CI: –0.8, 0.3 mV) or on any secondary peripheral nerve or central motor function outcome or on clinical examination (Table 5 ).
