Additional file 7: of Randomized controlled trials: who fails run-in?

Résumé fourni par la source

Run-in failure and measures of post-randomization adherence, by center. Average adherence (%) is defined for each center throughout the trial (3–5 years) as the self-reported number of pills taken by all participants medically eligible to take study pills throughout the trial, divided by the maximum number of pills that they should have taken. The measure excludes participants who involuntarily dropped out of the study or stopped taking pills for valid medical reasons. The correlation with RIF (%) measured by Kendall’s tau-b is –0.31 (95 % CI –0.78 to 0.16; p = 0.22). (PDF 45 kb)
