cannot excluded entirely residual score

Research gap analysis derived from 6 medicine papers in our local library.

The gap

Residual confounding from baseline internalizing score differences between groups cannot be entirely excluded and should be considered when interpreting between-group differences.; Propensity score matching was not feasible in this retrospective study; therefore residual confounding and selection bias cannot be completely excluded.; The possibility of publication bias cannot be entirely excluded, as studies with negative or inconclusive findings may be less likely to be published.
