In multicenter randomized trials, when effect modifiers have a different distribution across centers, comparisons between treatment groups that average over centers may not apply to any of the populations underlying the individual centers.…

Many statistical problems can be addressed by applying a multiple testing procedure (MTP) that controls either the Family-wise Error Rate (FWER) or False Discovery Rate (FDR) under unknown arbitrarily-interdependent $p$-values, without…
