QUOTED:
The replacement of dental fillings was carried out in 62/80
PT-positive and 15/38 PT-negative patients. 28 out of 62 (45.2%)
PT-positive and 3/15 (20%) PT-negative patients showed complete
healing of OLL after a mean follow-up time of 16 months.
JOEL:
In other words, replacing the fillings cured the problem twice as well
in the group which was mercury sensitive as in the group which was
mercury INSENSITIVE.
Could it be that there is a third factor? Some confounding factor
which is yet undiscovered?

PS- When N=118, you got a lot more work to establish a rule of
science.
