摘要
The aim of this statistical note, the fourth in the series, is to describe and critically appraise the randomized controlled clinical trial (RCCT) GUSTO V, which combined in a single RCCT both the superiority and non-inferiority hypotheses. In this note we present the logical path that the authors have presumably followed in planning a RCCT of such a kind. The results are reported and possible critical aspects are highlighted and debated upon. Finally the cardiologist reader is stimulated to give his own opinion on this kind of approach.
