In research studies, it is crucial to have a comparison group to evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention or treatment being investigated. The feasible comparison group would depend on the purpose of the research and the nature of the intervention being tested. The comparison group should be similar to the treatment group in all aspects except for the intervention being investigated. It could be a group that receives a placebo treatment, a group that receives the standard of care treatment, or a group that receives no treatment at all. The selection of the feasible comparison group should be based on careful consideration of the feasibility, ethical issues, and validity of the research.
