Why do some therapies appear in pink/red in the article summary?
Treatments appearing in pink/red are those which were planned in the research design. Usually, research reports the effect of treatments planned and used for all the patients in a group (“Planned therapies”). However, sometimes some patients who may not do well end up having to receive supplementary or replacement therapies that were not part of the original design (“Unplanned therapies”). To be most transparent, we list all the therapies that patients received, as best as can be determined from the article.
