Not surprising but need to see the full report. The numbers here don't add up. Sample size 64 but 11 people is 52% of the T group (implying 21 in the group) and 1 person is 5% of the control group (implying 20 people in that group). What happened to the other 23?

There's also no placebo control, which is pretty critical for the credibility of subjective outcomes. Looks like a weak study design, unfortunately.

@jocanib @KevinLikesMaps I mean, that's just not accurate. At least half of the total cohort was the plan ebo control. That's how you do an RCT; you can't call it an RCT without a 50% placebo control. That's literally that the RC means.

Half the total cohort is 32 but they report only 20 on control and 21 on T. What happened to the other 23?

@jocanib @KevinLikesMaps we'll find out when the full study gets published. This is a report from a conference presentation
