摘要
The patient selection criteria in a clinical trial of an alpha-blocker for the treatment of benign prostatic hypertrophy were such that 85% of the patients on the waiting lists of 4 hospitals had to be excluded. The value of such a trial is discussed. Trial protocols should be designed to allow the enrolment of patients truly representative of the patients for which the treatment is intended.
