Abstract: Abstract Differences in the mechanism of action and potential pleiotropic effects between statins and fibrates would potentially drive a different effect on various laboratory parameters, but this remains controversial because of a paucity of reports… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12874-025-02497-2
Abstract: Clinical studies often aim to test the non-inferiority of a treatment compared to an alternative intervention with binary matched-pairs data. These studies are often planned with methods for completely observed pairs only. However, if missingness… read more here.
