caught that. I was also not impressed with the frequency
of hypo in patients. I did a quick extrapolation on the
percentages of participants(which you had to reasonably
figure was with the smaller number of folks than the number
is today), and you realize that their hypo frequency number
is quite high. Thank god for the snack, huh!

"Did you also notice the p-value (0.48)? Almost even chances! "


Actually if you read it carefully, the study is based upon a mere 22 patients, and you seldom if ever get staistically significant reults in such a tiny population.

But nevertheless, the scores of 8.8% v 7.0% and the p value of 0.48 indicates a trend (by the way, it is a p-value of 1.0 that would mean even chances) - the sample size just isn't big enough to indict Increlex here.
