* We currently assume that those who left early have the same rate as 'events' as those who stayed in. This means that for each time the outcome is reported the assumption has negligible effect on the final calculation of RR. For 'opposite assumption' we have pushed the assumption further ‐ assumed that all who leave have done so because they have the outcome of interest.
