Outcome measures
Endpoint hierarchy in chronic pain: common failure modes and stress tests
Endpoints break down when the study objective, instrument choice, and interpretation logic were never aligned in the same conversation.
Trial strategy
Reducing signal-to-noise in pain trials without overcomplicating the study
Signal quality usually erodes through many small mismatches rather than one catastrophic design choice, which means it can also be improved through disciplined simplification.
