Matched on factors[edit source]
The study mentions that participants were "matched" based on similar age, BMI, and health status. However, the use of the term "similar" introduces some ambiguity.
It doesn’t specify if participants were matched exactly (e.g. same age or BMI or health status) or just approximately (with some variation allowed).
In this curation, I have referred to participants as "matched" based on age, BMI, and health status for consistency, but the study does not clarify the exact criteria used or how strictly participants were matched. Aleru Divine (talk) 09:52, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
