Exercise Two (4 pts.) If I wanted to conduct a clinical trial examining the clinical efficacy of a new antidepressant called Quipazine, how would I set up this study to be double blind and why would it be important to do so? Be specific in your description of how the study should be implemented and why it is important to conduct the study double blind.

[14 pts. 5. Page 3 of 4. (a). The Genetics and IVF Institute conducted a clinical trial of the XSORT method designed to increase probability of conceiving a girl. In the clinical trial, 325 babies were born to parents using the XSORT method, and 295 of them were girls. Use the sample data to construct a 99% confidence interval estimate (by hand) of the percentage (proportion) of girls born to parents using the XSORT method. Show your work. (10 points.)...

Clinical trial The design of the clinical trial for this study represented a single centered, double blind, placebo-controlled trial that utilized randomization to target patients for the trial. The eligible patients for the study were aged 21-90 years and after receiving a biopsy, these patients had confirmed colorectal adenocarcinoma and were deemed eligible for receiving treatment for the surgery to remove their adenocarcinoma, but were instead given an opportunity to participate in this research trial with written informed consent. Potential...
6. (3 pts) A randomized clinical trial was conducted in Indonesia to study the effects of Vitamin A in preventing deaths among children with measles. The investigators reported a relative risk of 0.60 for the intervention versus control group. This means that A) Children receiving Vitamin A were 40% less likely to die from measles than children receiving placebo, therefore Vitamin A was protective B) The chance of dying from measles in the placebo group was 60% C) 60% of...
Q 3 A clinical trial tests a method designed to increase the probability of conceiving a girl. In the study 300 babies were born, and 255 of them were girls. Use the sample data to construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born. Based on the result, does the method appear to be effective?
