We will first focus on LVM data in female participants with normal blood pressure and those that are hypertensive.  What is the mean LVM in individuals with normal blood pressure [LVM_norm] and the mean LVM in hypertensive individuals [LVM_hyp]?  What is the standard deviation of the LVM in individuals with normal blood pressure [std_norm] and the standard deviation of the LVM in hypertensive patients [std_hyper]? Report your answer using 3 significant figures. 

Many children have ear tubes surgically inserted to reduce hearing loss associated with persistent ear infection (otorrhea). A common side effect with ear tubes is discharge from the external ear indicating inflammation of the external or middle ear. A clinical trial was conducted among children with prior ear infections comparing efficacy of (i) antibiotic eardrops and (ii) oral antibiotics. Children were seen at home by study physicians at 2 weeks. The results are given in the Table below.  Observed data: Group Otorrhea 2 weeks = yes Otorrhea 2 weeks = no Total Antibiotic Ear Drops 4 72 76 Oral Antibiotic 34 43 77 Total 38 115 153
