In the Glaxo analysis, the researchers analyzed trials that included 8,958 people who took Paxil and 5,953 who received placebo pills.
We analyzed trials comparing EA with opioid analgesia to determine their external validity in contemporary North American practice.
We analyzed trials for each activity and subject using OpenSim software version 3.2 (Delp et al. 2007).
The conclusions on the effectiveness of homeopathy highly depend on the set of analyzed trials.
To ensure that differences observed between the two conditions were not due to differences in participant compliance in following the synchronized cues, we also analyzed trial-specific respiratory parameters for the first experiment (see Materials and Methods) and closely monitored participants' respiration in real-time during each subsequent experiment.
To corroborate this conclusion, we analyzed trials where the target was not detected (MISS trials).
Furthermore, based on the observation of large costs related to response switch in this paradigm, we analyzed trials in which the response had not changed from the previous trial.
In each block of 40 trials, the critical targets were presented 4 times, once with each prime type (novel congruent, novel incongruent, repeated congruent, repeated incongruent), for a total of 32 critical (analyzed) trials per block.
These 8 critical targets were preceded by each prime type (novel, repeated, repeated/novel) 4 times, twice as congruent primes and twice as incongruent primes, for a total of 96 critical (analyzed) trials per block.
All analyzed trials enrolled adults, with the only exception of a trial that enrolled children.
