The article “Treadmill Exercise and Resistance Training in Patients With Peripheral Arterial Disease With and Without Intermittent Claudication. A Randomized Controlled Trial” (M. McDermott, P. Ades, et al., Journal of the American Medical Association, 2009:165–174) reported the results of a study to determine whether treadmill exercise could improve the walking ability of patients suffering from claudication, which is pain caused by insufficient blood flow to the muscles of the legs. A sample of 48 patients walked on a treadmill for six minutes every day. After six months, the mean distance walked in six minutes was 348 m, with a standard deviation of 80 m. For a control group of 46 patients who did not walk on a treadmill, the mean distance was 309 m with a standard deviation of 89 m. Find a 95% confidence interval for the difference in mean distance walked between the two groups of patients.

For a control group of 46 patients who did not walk on a treadmill, the mean distance was 309 m with a standard deviation of 89 m. Can you conclude that the mean distance walked for patients using a treadmill is greater than the mean for the controls? Use the α = 0.05 level of significance.
Migraine and Acupuncture: A migraine is a particularly painful type of headache, which patients sometimes wish to treat with acupuncture. To determine whether acupuncture relieves migraine pain, researchers conducted a randomized controlled study where patients diagnosed with migraine headaches were randomly assigned to one of two groups: treatment or control.Patients in the treatment group received acupuncture that is specifically designed to treat migraines and patients in the control group received placebo acupuncture (needle insertion at non-acupoint locations). 24 hours after patients received acupuncture, they were asked if they were pain free. Results are summarized in the contingency table below. Test to see if migraine pain relief is dependent on receiving acupuncture. Test at the 8% level and round expected values to one decimal place. Pain Relief Yes (Observed) Yes (Expected Value) No (Observed) No (Expected Value) Row Total No Relief 29   29   58 Control 91   103…
