Limitations and Caveats

Hide Limitations and Caveats

Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data
2 sets of duplicates(4 patients(pts)) were counted only once.652 sites were initiated and 611 enrolled.One site transferred all pts to other sites.27 pts randomised and 13 pts screened were excluded from analyses due to serious non-compliance
