What are the Challenges in Assessing Treatment Responses?
Assessing treatment responses can be challenging due to several reasons:
1. Variability: Individual variability in response to treatments can make it difficult to generalize findings. 2. Bias: Selection bias, information bias, and confounding factors can distort the true effect of a treatment. 3. Long-Term Effects: Some treatments may have long-term effects that are not immediately apparent, requiring prolonged follow-up. 4. Ethical Considerations: Randomized controlled trials may not always be feasible or ethical, especially in vulnerable populations.
