Two-by-two factorial randomised study within a trial (SWAT) to evaluate strategies for follow-up in a randomised prevention trial (2020)
Journal Article
Bradshaw, L., Montgomery, A. A., Williams, H. C., Chalmers, J., & Haines, R. (2020). Two-by-two factorial randomised study within a trial (SWAT) to evaluate strategies for follow-up in a randomised prevention trial. Trials, 21, Article 529. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13063-020-04373-4

Background
Failure to collect outcome data in randomised trials can result in bias and loss of statistical power. Further evaluations of strategies to increase retention are required. We assessed the effectiveness of two strategies for retention in...
