    Patients will be randomly assigned into two groups. A randomization list will be generated from 1 to 40 by a random number generator (https://stattrek.com/statistics/random-number-generator.aspx) and patients will be randomly assigned into each intervention group by their numbers. The block randomization technique with 1:1 ratio will be used to achieve balanced group sizes.

    بیماران به طور تصادفی به دو گروه تخصیص داده خواهند شد. یک لیست اعداد تصادفی از 1 تا 40 با استفاده از یک سایت تولید کننده اعداد تصادفی (https://stattrek.com/statistics/random-number-generator.aspx) ایجاد خواهد شد و سپس بیماران با استفاده از اعداد به دو گروه مداخله تخصیص داده خواهند شد. روش تصادفی سازی بلوکی با نسبت 1 به 1 برای رسیدن به دو گروه با حجم نمونه برابر استفاده خواهد شد.

    Randomization and allocation will be concealed from the researchers and participants until the final analyses are completed. Another person at the Clinic, who is not involved in the trial and not aware of random sequences, will assign the participants to the numbered bottles of drugs. Supplements and placebos are in the same packaging at the Tak Gen Zist pharmaceutical company. Only the code is written on the packages. Patients and researcher will not know the type of intervention. After analyzing the data, pocket codes will be decoded. Participants and investigators/the assessors of the outcomes are unaware of the study groups.

    تصادفی سازی و تخصیص تصادفی از محققان و شرکت کنندگان در مطالعه تا زمان تکمیل آنالیز آماری پنهان خواهد ماند. فرد دیگری در کلینیک که در این کارآزمایی بالینی نقشی ندارد و از تخصیص تصادفی آگاه نیست، به شرکت کنندگان در مطالعه، بطری های شماره گذاری شده داروها را تخصیص خواهد داد. مکمل ها و پلاسبو در شرکت داروسازی تک ژن زیست در بسته بندی های مشابه قرار می گیرند و بر روی آن ها فقط کد گذاشته می شود.بیماران و محققین از نوع مداخله بی خبرند و بعد از آنالیز داده ها، کدهای بسته ها رمز گشایی میشود. شرکت کنندگان و هم محققان یا ارزیابان پیامد از تخصیص گروه های مطالعه بی اطلاعند.

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Patients will be randomly assigned into two groups. A randomization list will be generated from 1 to 40 by a random number generator (https://stattrek.com/statistics/random-number-generator.aspx) and patients will be randomly assigned into each intervention group by their numbers. The block randomization technique with 1:1 ratio will be used to achieve balanced group sizes.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
Randomization and allocation will be concealed from the researchers and participants until the final analyses are completed. Another person at the Clinic, who is not involved in the trial and not aware of random sequences, will assign the participants to the numbered bottles of drugs. Supplements and placebos are in the same packaging at the Tak Gen Zist pharmaceutical company. Only the code is written on the packages. Patients and researcher will not know the type of intervention. After analyzing the data, pocket codes will be decoded. Participants and investigators/the assessors of the outcomes are unaware of the study groups.
