Alas not and this was just one of the problems with the study and write-up, including a conclusion that one of the interventions tested had ‘no effect’ because it was not statistically significant! (though the OR was 8)
The "publish or perish" mindset and gigantic replication failure of most scientific papers are a real epidemic that we need to stop. https://t.co/bRSnZAwOtY
