Confounders in Homoeopathic Research with Dr. Aditya Patil

What do you mean by confounder?

A confounder is a variable that influences both the independent variable (e.g., the treatment or intervention) and the dependent variable (e.g., the outcome) in a study, creating a misleading association between them. In other words, it’s an outside factor that can distort the true relationship between what’s being studied and the effect being measured.
