Charm, as always, I appreciate your tendency to stand back an give a more scientific method way of analyzing the data in studies and things such as this. It's the smart way to do things. You certainly have had the experience and do your homework when it comes to different scientific studies. You remind me a lot of my husband, Dan, who has a BA in physics and an MA in astronomy. He is currently reading "The Emperor of All Maladies" by Siddhartha Mukherjee. He's learning a lot about the history of cancer and how treatment and research has changed throughout time.
