What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

SALACUNAR (LACI-2-polyphenols) is a multi-center randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the effect of a polyphenol-rich supplement on small vessel neurovascular disease. Specifically, the compound to be tested is a dietary supplement based on Salicornia extract and B vitamins (B-salicornia), which in previous studies has demonstrated a good safety profile and consistent effects in reducing homocysteine levels and improving cognitive outcomes (MOCA) in patients with lacunar infarcts. This has been used to calculate the sample size based on these endpoints. Considering an intragroup variability of the treatment groups (sigma) of 6.07, and accepting an alpha risk of 0.05, a sample of 150 patients per group would achieve a 1-beta statistical power greater than 0.8 in a two-tailed test for differences between means of at least two points on the MOCA scale. Three hundred patients with
