Participant Flow
401605 initially screened; 39430 eligible to enter run-in; 25871 eligible for randomization; 2x2 factorial design: 12927 assigned to active vit D (of these, 6463 were assigned to active omega-3 FAs and 6464 to placebo omega-3 FAs) \& 12944 assigned to placebo vit D (of these, 6470 were assigned to active omega-3 FAs and 6474 to placebo omega-3 FAs)
The trial included a 3-month placebo run-in period to select participants likely to have excellent compliance. Only individuals who reported taking at least 2/3 of their study pills during the run-in and met other eligibility criteria were randomized into the trial.
