Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
In this study, volunteers were individually assigned into two Groups (drug and placebo) using block randomization. It should be noted that 4 sized blocks are used in this method. Block randomization was done using the "https://www.sealedenvelope.com/simple-randomiser/v1/lists" website and the obtained specialized codes (including two English letters and one number) were assigned to each candidate in the order of entry.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
Block randomization is performed by an independent individual who labels the drugs and placebos based on the generated codes. The physician and the study executor administer the drug/placebo to patients using the corresponding code, without knowing the type of treatment. Similarly, patients receive treatment based on the specified code and are unaware of their treatment type. It is worth mentioning that the statistician is aware of the group allocations and uses the information provided by the independent individual to categorize patients into two groups and perform the statistical tests.
