Randomization description
After confirmation of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients with rosacea, they are divided into two groups based on restricted simple randomization of block randomization.: group 1 (intervention) and group 2 (comparison). Blocking is usually used to balance the number of samples assigned to each of the study groups. This feature helps researchers to ensure that the number of samples assigned to each of the study groups is equal in cases where intermediate analyzes are required during the sampling process. The size of all blocks is equal and in this two-group experiment ,we will have 20 blocks (including 3 participants in the intervention group and 3 participants in the control group). For randomization tools, random allocation software is used. These random sequence generation software, in addition to simple randomization, are able to generate random sequences by blocking method.
