Then, through the obtained randomization list, the subjects included in the study will be assigned to one of the two groups A or B. For example, suppose that in the first four blocks, the permutation method is ABBA, so the first and fourth samples will be assigned to group A and the second and third samples to group B and the same will continue until the last sample (44th person).
