Abstract
"Soccer is an international sport that serves as a metaphor for clinical research with human subjects. The soccer field is in play all the time. The ball may be sent forward toward the goal or back away from it in order to strategically advance and score. The players work as a team in the strategic play. Infractions of rules by member(s) of one team give advantage to the opposing team albeit temporarily. Fair and competitive play within the rules of the game creates an almost infinite variety of options for players to compete, engage, score and win. If the rules exist to ensure safety and fairness, they do not also dictate what play any team or player must make in the game. Soccer rules, like human subject research regulations are safety boundaries. So long as the rules are not interpreted preferentially for one team over the other, they are mutually protective."
