Limitations and Caveats
Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data
The main limitation of this report stems from its uncontrolled, open-label design. Thus, we cannot assert a causal relationship between lower smoking rates and OROS MPH prescription.
