So to clear things up is this right? In regard to Hemo trauma>>>>>>>>>>>"Phase III data under analysis(decrease in placebo event rate>50% from phase II)
This is NEW and IMPORTANT. Slides reference P II, placebo, event rate at 32% meaning P III placebo event rate was below 16%<<<<<<<
AND IN REGARD TO MENINGO>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Clinical benefit in reduction of mortality and morbidities (e.g. severe amputations) confirmed. What is new about that?? The (severe amputations) part. IMO means the less severe amputations were not that different in either of the stratified arms. Also demonstrates another reason why analysis was probably complex. If more fingers and toes lost in treatment group what does this mean compared to fewer more sever amputations? Just trying to illustrate that severity of amputations in itself presents a statistical situation that requires analysis.
Scannon slides say BLA and MMA in progress.
Help! What's a MMA???<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<,

Maybe it is possible that the reason the placebo group did so well was that all trial participants may have recieved bpi inadvertantly through their pc. It is a possibility, to what extent the probability I do not know. I am not joking.
This is my theory, nobody elses.
btw-george nice detective work, mma I dont know.
Standard K, all imo + my own theory. Consider all as worthless and nothing as fact. Always.
