I am aware of this happening in multiple cases involving scientific fraud… no idea how exactly this is being done though.
But did the low sodium diet itself serve any factor in the violence that occured in this botched study?
Not sure… but even without dietary interventions, there are a lot of simple explanations to how this could have gone wrong. This was a much larger study than the Camp Calcium series this PI did, a lot of the recruited kids are low income/from problematic households, with very little to no adult oversight, and there were very few activities for entertainment/enrichment… Also the dorm they lived in was technically separated by gender, but let’s just say that it is not difficult to get to the other gender dorm… So yeah.
