I am planning a clinical trial to compare two diets on reducing the risk of type II diabetes. Because there is a restriction on the total budget, I would prefer to enroll a small number of participants. Meanwhile, it is important that there is sufficient statistical power to detect a clinically meaningful difference. Is there any study design that can be utilized?
