Jan 24: Assignment 2 Questions

Due to the strict inclusion and exclusion regulations, the number of subject (sample size) is so small. In this case, does it make sense to compute p values in order to do hypothesis testing?

In both received real acupuncture group and received sham acupuncture group, there are quite a few participants quiting from the study in the treatment process. The author just got rid of the missing data or dropouts. Does this simple approach bring about bias in estimation?
