Biostatistics- A clinical trial is conducted comparing a new pain reliever for arthritis to a placebo. Participants are randomly assigned to receive the new treatment or a placebo and the outcome is pain relief within 30 minutes. The data are shown in table 7-54 is there a significant difference in the proportions of patients reporting pain relief? Run the test at a 5% level of significance. Â

6) Proportions new medication
Pain Relief- 44/120=0.3666=0.367
No Pain Relief-76/120=0.633=0.633
Proportions placebo
Pain Relief- 21/120=0.175
No Pain Relief-9/120=0.825 Formula:
New Medication: (0.367-0.633) +/- 1.96 sqroot 0.367(1-0.367)/120 + 0.633(1-0.633)/120
Sqroot 0.001898 +0.001932935 =0.003833925 Sqroot=0.0619
(0.367-0.633)= 1.96*0.0619=0121324 round up 0.121 -0.266=+/- 0.121= -0.145 or -0.387 they are not statistically the same. Placebo(0.175-0.825) +/- 1.96 sqroot 0.175(1-0.175)/120 +0.825(1-0.825)/120
