I still think is a wrong number typo ( should be 0.01 not 0.10) and that is why they are saying "statistically significant". It is a big mistake to be "liberal " and call 0.10 statistically significant. It just does not hold. Maybe someone should call the company or PRnewswire. Maybe we will get 5 cents extra if corrected. The "power" of the type II is usually a problem due to the number of patients, and the percentage difference. But still it could yield statistically significant numbers ( of course the significance could be erase in a larger study). If they indeed got 0.10 and they are calling that "statistically significant" then I am very worry. I would take my pocket change and run. Not only is a poor result, but they are cavalier enough to call it statistically significant. Or worse they do not know that the usually accepted number is one in twenty = or less than 0.05. I hope for the wrong typo.
