Osteоpоrоsis is а condition in which people experience decreаsed bone mаss and an increase in the risk of bone fracture. Actonel is a drug that helps combat osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.  In a clinical trial, postmenopausal women were randomly divided into experimental and control groups.  The subjects in the experimental group were administered 5 milligrams of Actonel, while the subjects in the control  group were administered a placebo.   Of the 696 women in the experimental group, 27 experienced a bone fracture over the course of a year.  Of the 687 women in the control group, 49 experienced a fracture.  Does this evidence suggest the drug is effective in preventing bone fracture?
