Study aim:
The effect of dynamic neuromuscular stabilization exercises on urinary incontinence in patients with multiple sclerosis
Design:
In this study, due to the small number of samples, in consultation with a statistician, it was decided to use the random blocking method. Blocking is usually used to balance the number of samples assigned to each of the groups studied.
