Twin peaks? No evidence of bimodal distribution of outcomes in clinical trials of non-surgical interventions for spinal pain: An exploratory analysis

The presence of bimodal outcome distributions has been used as a justification for conducting responder analyses, in addition to, or in place of analyses of mean difference, in clinical trials and systematic reviews of interventions for pain. The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of participants’ pain outcomes for evidence of bimodal distribution.
