Randomised, controlled clinical trials are accepted as the most reliable way of determining the efficacy of therapies. However, designing a trial is a task that demands experience, statistical knowledge and time. As a result, many published clinical trials are poorly designed, suggesting that the protocol was incomplete, disorganised or contained e...
