Question

A study compared surgery and splinting for subjects suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome. It was found that among 73 patients treated with surgery,
there was a 92% success rate. Among 83 patients treated with splints, there was a 72% success rate. Calculations using those results showed that if
there really is no difference in success rates between surgery and splints, then there is about 1 chance in 1000 of getting success rates like the ones
obtained in this study. Which statement cannot be said?
The better treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome is surgery.
The result has practical significance.
The recommended treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome is splinting.
The result has statistical significance.​
