Identifying likely placebo responders can help design more efficient clinical trials by stratifying participants, reducing sample size requirements, and enhancing the detection of true drug effects. In response to this need, we developed a deep convo...
Placebo effect represents a serious confounder for the assessment of treatment effect to the extent that it has become increasingly difficult to develop antidepressant medications appropriate for outperforming placebo. Treatment effect in randomized,...
