Refer to the information provided in Scenario 36.4 below to answer the question(s) that follow.

SCENARIO 36.4: In a randomized 1-year trial of 400 Mr. Lincoln hybrid tea rose bushes with rose rosette disease, 200 are slated to receive only a sulphur treatment (we will call this Group A), and the other 200 are slated to receive the sulphur treatment and an additional neem oil treatment 4 months later (we will call this Group B). Assume that the neem oil treatment is ineffective in treating rose rosette disease, so on average, the same proportion of rose bushes in each group will die of the disease. In Group B, 25 of the 200 rose bushes die in the 4-month period leading up to the neem oil treatment. Of the 175 bushes left, 25 die in the 8 months following the neem oil treatment. Since we know the neem oil treatment is ineffective, the rose bushes in Group A will, on average, suffer the same fate as those in Group B, with 25 bushes dying in the first 4 months and another 25 dying in the following 8 months.

Economics in Practice on p. 724: Refer to Scenario 36.4. Since we know that the neem oil treatment is ineffective in curing rose rosette disease, when we use the intention to treat method, the rate of death due to rose rosette disease becomes ________ than when we do not use the intention to treat method.


◦ lower for Group B
◦ higher for Group B
◦ lower for Group A
◦ lower for Group A and higher for Group B

Did you know?

Each year in the United States, there are approximately six million pregnancies. This means that at any one time, about 4% of women in the United States are pregnant.

As many as 28% of hospitalized patients requiring mechanical ventilators to help them breathe (for more than 48 hours) will develop ventilator-associated pneumonia. Current therapy involves intravenous antibiotics, but new antibiotics that can be inhaled (and more directly treat the infection) are being developed.

Did you know?

About one in five American adults and teenagers have had a genital herpes infection—and most of them don't know it. People with genital herpes have at least twice the risk of becoming infected with HIV if exposed to it than those people who do not have genital herpes.
