So, I have an interesting question for #epitwitter and science fans
Is this study actually a randomized controlled trial (RCT)?

I generally think RCTs are good, but we shouldn't treat RCT as being synonymous with good. This is a deeply problematic paper for lots of reasons, but they did randomize.
Yeh I'm on the fence here that's why I'm asking. They did indeed randomize, but also they broke the randomization for this subset so it's a bit tangled
HELL TO THE NO!
I'm not sure if the results are interpretable anymore after creating the new outcomes post hoc, hence I'd say no.
