Case 24 — Research figure captions: tell the reader what was measured

Summary draft for “Research figure captions: tell the reader what was measured”: the answer addresses “Describe the measurement, population or model,…”; the related point is “Interpretive discussion belongs alongside the evidence, not…”. Keep both connected to the opening question, and mark any conclusion needing further records as unresolved. Review focus: scope. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.

Case 23 — Exploratory subgroup analysis: keep the label visible

Correction note for “Exploratory subgroup analysis: keep the label visible”: retain the wording beginning “State whether it was prespecified and how…” in the record. If later material changes it, add the date, the changed wording and the source for that change; do not invent a completed correction here. Keep the stated question separate from any broader claim.
