[SBI] Data for Fisher's Exact and some ethical considerations

Good evening, So this isn't about SBI per se, but is with regard to the blog posts about finding real data (which are great, by the way). I happened upon this article in Lancet that I like for a couple of reasons. It's from 1998, but I think it's still worth considering: Wolkenstein et al. (1998). Randomised comparison of thalidomide versus placebo in toxic epidermal necrolysis. The Lancet 352, 1586-1589. It's a small sample size (appropriate for Fisher's Exact Test), and the study had to be stopped because more people were dying from the active treatment than placebo (10/12 vs. 3/10). Thus, it's a nice opportunity to talk about ethics when studying human subjects and provides a real (and I think interesting as well) example of Fisher's Test. Megan Megan J.
