It is so interesting that folks like Cue7 can take no information and comfortably draw conclusions.

Maybe its best to say that since Medicine is still a science and data driven discipline, folks that can’t get used to the way one properly analyzes data, including how to handle missing data, maybe don’t belong in the field?

FYI, I have no dog in this fight other than the fact that I hate to see a decent place maligned (especially when it is obvious that some folks actually listen to the “conclusions”) based on the absence of a particular kind of data. Heck, I’m well beyond the pre-med point in my life. My own kid has thankfully passed that bridge, too, and on to other things.

So readers, think what you want, of course. But please realize that UofC may in fact be doing you a favor by not releasing the data Cue7 wants.
