Question 5

In a weight loss study among diabetic patients , patients in the exercise intervention group showed a mean weight loss of 10% and patients in the first intervention group showed a mean weight loss of 7%. The difference between the means of two groups is 3 and the 95% CI is -1 to 7, which of the following is the most accurate prediction of patient outcome if you try to replicate this study in your practice?

A: Because the CI contains -1, the diet group could loose more weight on average than the exercise group in your practice.

B: Because the CI contains 3, you might get the same result in your practice.

C. All of the above are accurate predictions
