"I tell Keith it must be the data-monitoring committee," Chen recalls.
When evaluating the functional and electrophysiological data, it must be noted that the data only include observations from hearts in sinus rhythm.
The SEER 9 registry data cover only 10% of the United States, and it must be asked whether the data presented represent the whole US population.
It must be investigated whether the data follow the normal distribution in advance.
However, it must be noted that the data available in the literature refer to different populations from different countries, where different treatment modalities could be applied, or different unit costs are applicable, or which include older patients than those involved in our study [ 6- 13, 13- 15, 51, 52].
"Whatever those implications are, it must be valuable data to them".
It must be stressed that the data presented here are just the preliminary results.
It must be stressed that the data is not comparable or compatible since, in the metastatic carcinoma group studied by Lee et al. [ 8], distant organ metastases were the dominant ones (106/127), while nodal metastases constituted only a small percentage (21/127; 16%).
After study completion, it must be ensured that the data are properly archived and ready for inspection by either the regulatory agencies or the sponsor.
Nevertheless, it must be concluded from the data presented that major chromosomal rearrangements have not occurred during the recent evolutionary history (i.e., domestication) of this species.
It must be noted that the data for 2001 08 present a different picture.
