A note on reading the evidence.
Follow the people through the report, beyond the enrollment page. Look for an account of which results were available at later visits and how the authors handled gaps. If a summary includes only people with a final measurement, ask what would be needed to describe everyone who began. Keep a missing measurement separate from a recorded decision to leave or change treatment. Those details help explain whose experience a number represents. For a care discussion, turn an unclear gap into a question about the analysis rather than assuming a favorable or unfavorable outcome.
Questions to open a conversation.
- Whose measurements were available when the final result was calculated?
- How did the analysis handle people without a later measurement?
- Does the report distinguish missing information from a recorded treatment change?
