Journal Article #1

Why the Test and Data are Appropriate

The data obtained from the primary French health insurance system's database was

appropriate as it built a cohort of patients starting the opioid substitution therapy. The data was

appropriate as the health insurance system covers 87% of the French general population. It

incorporates people with different occupations and includes the unemployed and low-income

earners (Dupouy et al., 2013). The tests were appropriate as they were essential in determining the

significance of the article's research concerning the null hypothesis. For instance, the results of the

tests carried out, such as the Fisher test and chi-square tests, were due to chance and were not

significant in supporting the idea being investigated.

Data Presented

The data presented entails data extracted from the primary French health insurance system's

database. The data was extracted from the Midi-Pyrenees region from January 1, 2009, to

December 31, 2011. The data included a recorded OS between July 1, 2009, and June 30, 2010,

and a follow-up was made for eighteen to thirty months (Dupouy et al., 2013). The data collected

was based on one thousand five hundred and fifty-four patients. However, among them, one

thousand five hundred and seven patients were analyzed after others were excluded due to various

reasons such as lack of demographic data, mistaken attribution, and inability to meet the inclusion

criteria. The first OS delivery was the reference date in the article. The addiction treatment period

was thirty days before the first delivery of the OS prescribed to the end of the opioid substitution

treatment (OST). The French Data Protection Authority approved the study.
