That CAN'T be true! / Does sodium chlorite have healing powers?

The study design you questioned was indicated in the title (...a multicenter, randomized, two-arm, open-label trial). IF a study uses multiple comparisons and does not indicate or correct for it, it would be outright uneducated or unethical.
When testing a null hypothesis, note that the probability (p-vale) of obtaining a result also indicates the probability of false-positives, but does not indicate if a result is a fluke or if a result is correct or incorrect.
Here are "free" scientific studies (i.e. no library card required) to further support my conclusion:
Application of Acidified Sodium Chlorite in the Drinking Water to Control Salmonella serotype Typhimurium and Campylobacter jejuni in Commercial Broilers(http://japr.fass.org/cgi/content/full/16/1/45). Actual data from this study showing decrease in Salmonella and Campylobacter (http://japr.fass.org/cgi/content/full/16/1/45/T2, http://japr.fass.org/cgi/content/full/16/1/45/T3). Yes, I realize that this is in chickens...
Development of WF10, a novel macrophage-regulating agent (http://74.125.155.132/scholar?q=cache:GsxrxFnDjPYJ:scholar.google.com/+Oxoferin&hl=en&num=50&as_sdt=10000000000000). A study of AIDs patients and the impact of chlorite on T-cells. Google has a problem with the *.pdf conversion. If you want the tables, get the *.pdf. I will not post it due to copyright.
Reduced Incidence and Severity of Acute Radiation Mucositis by WF10 (IMMUNOKINE) as Adjunct to Standard of Cure in the Management of Head & Neck Cancer Patients (http://www.mat.or.th/journal/files/Vol90_No.8_1590_9639.pdf). It appears to reduce inflammation associated with cancers therapies.
