Core Tip	The modern scientific process depends on the collaboration among multiple investigators with complementary expertise. Gone are the days when a single investigator can typically be expected to have all the expertise necessary to produce a high quality article on any complex topic. One area of expertise that may be often taken for granted is that of the statistical design and analysis. The concerns raised about the paper in our letter highlight the value of having extensive and careful statistical input into the production of any empirical research paper.
