The tsunami of RCT in migraine has plateaued, if not subsided, after the CGRT-monoclonal antibody bandwagon has completed its role by early 2019 in the ongoing theatre of migraine research.
The RCT rests heavily , if not completely, on the mathematical power of statistics. The negative role of statistics in medical research is just becoming apparent (see attached file), although I have been highlighting the same since 3 decades.
Now, the role and the biological value of the RCT will begin to be debated, its limitations will be appreciated, and its role in positive and negative results will clear the desk of much clutter.
The category of the absurd, whose demarcation has been eliminated through the careful orchestration of the RCT, sits right in front-and- middle of the laptop / desktop of every researcher in medicine.
