    This study introduces RANLST, a program for generating random sequences in biomedical experiments. It facilitates patient and animal randomization for treatments, offering flexible allocation options.

    Area of Science:

    • Biostatistics
    • Experimental Design
    • Bioinformatics

    Background:

    • Randomization is crucial for unbiased treatment allocation in biomedical research.
    • Existing methods for generating random sequences may lack flexibility for complex experimental designs.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe RANLST, an interactive program designed for creating random sequences.
    • To facilitate the randomization of patients or animals to different treatment groups in biomedical experiments.

    Main Methods:

    • The RANLST program allows users to specify stratification factors.
    • Users can define the seed value for the random number generator.
    • The program supports both equal and unequal treatment allocation ratios.
    • Both unrestricted and restricted randomization methods are available.

    Main Results:

    • RANLST provides a user-friendly interface for generating customizable random sequences.
    • The program accommodates various randomization schemes, including stratified and restricted randomization.
    • An illustrative example demonstrates the practical application of RANLST.

    Conclusions:

    • RANLST is a valuable tool for researchers needing to implement robust randomization in experimental studies.
    • The program enhances the integrity of biomedical experiments by ensuring proper treatment allocation.
    • RANLST offers flexibility and control over the randomization process.
