Quit Smoking: The New England Journal of Medicine published the results of a double-blind, placebo-controlled experiment to study the effect of nicotine patches and the antidepressant bupropion on quitting smoking. With the data from the experiment we calculate the sample difference in the "quit smoking" rates for the nicotine treatment group and the placebo group ("treatment" minus "placebo"). We get 0.8% = 0.008. Which of the following is an appropriate conclusion based on this finding? A. In this experiment the...

Pulmonary Disease Asthma is an important health problem for inner-city chil- dren, frequently resulting in hospital admission if symptoms become exacerbated. It is well known that compliance of children with asthma medication is often poor. Also, many household allergens (e.g., roaches) worsen asthma symp- toms. A study is proposed in which children will be rand- omized to either an active intervention where a community health worker comes to the home and educates the children...
