Sources of Error and Bias

Genetic mutation Varying amounts of inflammation Location of inflammation Injury Bias from people running the experiment Mobility of patient Other prescriptions that patient is taking Weight (Exclude some from experiment and by having a large sample group within the experiment, any potential skews of data through patients with adverse affects may not have such a great affect upon the data.)
