Which statement best describes this finding? The characteristics of patients who failed to comply with the treatment dosages should be assessed as they may differ from those who complied Question 7 Which of the following statements best describes the reason for conducting the study as a double-
blind trial? Double blinding ensures that potential biases regarding selection, follow-up, & analysis can be reduced Question 8 A multicenter double-blind r&omized study was carried out to compare the effect of drug X with that of a placebo in patients surviving acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

days after infarction in 1,884 patients, 52% of all persons who were evaluated for entry into the study.
945 participants were r&omized to treatment with drug X while 939 were assigned to the placebo group. Patients were then followed for 12 months for reinfarction.
