Predictors of clinical trial discontinuation in trichotillomania: a secondary analysis of previous clinical trials
This study is among the first to examine variables associated with discontinuation rates in trichotillomania trials. The results underscore the importance of addressing educational background and patient history of depression when assessing dropout risk. These findings can guide future research to better support participants at risk of discontinuing treatment.
