thank you very much I feel very honoured

Any properly conducted trial into the effects of a treatment should also record side effects etc to see if the treatment is actually safe or not.

Thank you for that because with your link I managed to find an Excel version but I wasn't allowed by the forum to upload the Excel version that's why I have uploaded the PDF version

Hi I can see what you mean; here you can see where it comes
