Abstract

When the two different methods of treatment are to be compared for effectiveness, preliminary information is in many cases obtained by experiments on laboratory animals. Suppose we are interested in two ointment preparations. The question arises: Does there or does there not exist a difference in the effectiveness of the two preparations? There are test animals at our disposal on which we can produce the seat of a disease. Let the measure of effectiveness be the amount oftime required for recovery:

  1. 1.

    The simplest approach would be to divide a group of test animals randomly into two subgroups of equal size, treat one group by method one and the other by method two, and then compare the results of the therapies.

  2. 2.

    The following approach is more effective: Test animals are paired in such a way that the individual pairs are as homogeneous as possible with regard to sex, age, weight, activity, etc. The partners are then assigned randomly (e.g., by tossing a coin) to the two treatments. The fact that the experimenter hardly ever has a completely homogeneous collection of animals at his disposal is taken into account in this procedure.

  3. 3.

    The following procedure is considerably more effective: A group of test animals is chosen and a so-called right-left comparison carried out. That is, we produce on the right and left flank of each individual (or any such natural homogeneous subgroup of size two, like a pair of twins or the two hands of the same person) two mutually independent seats of a disease, and allot the two treatments to the two flanks, determining by a random process which is to be treated by the one method and which by the other (cf., also Section 7.7).
