What it does not prove

  • Observational design cannot establish causation and is susceptible to confounding by indication, unmeasured confounders, and selection bias
  • Without reported effect sizes or sample characteristics, the clinical significance and applicability of any comparison cannot be assessed
  • This abstract describes the study methodology and goals rather than results, so no clinical outcomes are established
