USE THE 8-STEP HYPOTHESIS TESTING In a study by Xiao and Shi (A-14), researchers studied the effect of cranberry juice in the treatment and prevention of Helicobacter pylori infection in mice. The eradication of Helicobacter pylori results in the healing of peptic ulcers. Researchers compared treatment with cranberry juice to "triple therapy (amoxicillin, bismuth subcitrate, and metronidazole) in mice infected with Helicobacter pylori. After 4 weeks, they examined the mice to determine the frequency of eradication of the bacterium in the two treatment groups. The following table shows the results. Triple therapy Cranberry juice No. of Mice with Helicobacter pylori Eradicated Yes No 8 2 2 8 Source: Shu Dong Xiao and Tong Shi, "Is Cranberry Juice Effective in the Treatment and Prevention of Helicobacter Pylori Infection of Mice," Chinese Journal of Digestive Diseases, 4 (2003), 136-139. May we conclude, on the basis of these data, that triple therapy is more effective than cranberry juice at eradication of the bacterium? Let a = .05 and find the p value.
