简要总结

Protocol:For continuous variables number of non-missing observations (n), mean, standard deviation (SD), median, maximum, and minimum (range) will be presented.For discrete and categorical variables, data will be expressed as numbers with percent values.

All analyses will be done using two-sided tests at alpha 0.05 (95% confidence level).

Study hypothesis:H0:         There is no significant difference in the change in OKS scores between the study treatment (Metformin) and the reference (No metformin) treatment.

H1:         The change (improvement) in OKS scores is greater with the study treatment (Metformin) and reference (No metformin) treatment.
