§3.1Primary endpoint
Table 3. Primary endpoint as reported.
| Endpoint | Result as reported | Certainty |
|---|---|---|
| Resolution of steatohepatitis on paired biopsy | Resolution in 39 % versus 9 % with placebo; the sample is small and the Institute grades the estimate low certainty for imprecision | Low |
| Reproduced from the published report. Where the report states a confidence interval the Institute reproduces it; where it does not, none is constructed. | ||
