Alternatively, trials that were ≤4 weeks may have had protocols that better favored compliance.
Alternatively, a trial might include a wide range of participants, meaningfully assess the effect, but evaluate an intervention that is enforced or tightly monitored and thus not widely feasible.
Alternatively the trials were randomly assigned to the stimulus conditions (Monte Carlo maps).Then the data was fit using the regression analysis of eq. 2. This was done 136 times resulting in 272 sets of maps.
Alternatively, oncology trials often compare the extent to which the treatment delays locoregional recurrence or disease progression.
Alternatively, in trials examining available medications or supplements for therapeutic benefit in AD, the greater availability of these agents can pose a challenge to enrollment.
Alternatively, cluster trials of interventions targeted at the workplace to change culture and attitudes could be explored, similar to what was done in the Victorian Workcover back injury prevention programme [ 78].
Alternatively, clinical trials in child psychiatry may evaluate outcome on the basis of a clinical response (i.e., and objective evidence of a patient's symptom improvement; Simpson et al. 2006).
31 Alternatively, small trials reported that a tumour B cell hybidoma vaccine against tumour stem cells elicited a specific tumour immune reaction, thus enhancing immune response to the disease 32 and results from the larger trials might identify a new avenue in the area of adjuvant treatment in the future.
Alternatively, DNA capture trials have also been performed using in-solution hybridization to biotinylated BAC or RNA probes [24], [25].
Alternatively, the smallest trials examined (fewer than 300) had higher rates of retention (81.4%).
