ITP survival analysis:   Protandim

Intervention:   Protandim     dietary supplement, anti-aging
Trial code: Prot Dose: 600 ppm then 1200 ppm initiated at age: 10 mo then 17 mo Sex: both Cohort: C2011
This compound had a significant effect on survival:   males p = 0.0095

Results are based on the use of pooled factor(s) that is/are stratified within the survival analysis model.
