    Randomization is a method used in randomized clinical trials (RCTs) that allocates subjects to treatment groups randomly to ensure each subject has an equal chance of receiving any treatment. Compliance refers to how closely subjects adhere to their assigned treatment protocol. Excessive exclusion criteria can decrease external validity or the generalizability of a study's findings. Investigators worry about subjects lost to follow up because it impacts their ability to assess outcomes. Blinding helps prevent measurement bias by ensuring the unbiased assessment of outcomes. The experimental group receives the active treatment while the control group receives an inert or no treatment. A placebo effect is an effect attributed to a participant's expectations from a treatment rather than the treatment itself. Confounds are
