Correct Transcript:

No that was, and that's an important aspect, as you alluded to earlier, we've previously done work which has proven that in some situations, even people whose blood pressure is not high can benefit from blood pressure lowering therapy. So in this study, the main reason that we included the patients was because of diabetes. We didn't care what their blood pressure was, whether it was high or low. And our objective was to see whether or not lowering average (0:25) or below average blood pressure in diabetics was beneficial and the result suggested that irrespective of whether your blood pressure was high or low, if you had diabetes you benefited.
AI explanationShows the answer. Tap to open.
Printed "referred", the speaker says "alluded"

Explanation: Listen again to "as you alluded to earlier". The first letters differ, so listen to the start of the word.

Printed "circumstances", the speaker says "situations"

Explanation: In the audio you hear "in some situations even". The printed and spoken words start with different letters, so listen at the start.

Printed "rehabilitation", the speaker says "therapy"

Explanation: Here the speaker says "blood pressure lowering therapy". The spoken word is much shorter than the printed one, so listen for a short word.

Printed "intention", the speaker says "objective"

Explanation: The speaker says "And our objective was", not "intention". The words start with different letters, so listen from the start.

Printed "effect", the speaker says "result"

Explanation: Listen for "and the result suggested". The first letters are different, so focus on the start of the word.

Printed "profited", the speaker says "benefited"

Explanation: You will hear "if you had diabetes you benefited". Both words end the same way, so listen to the whole word, not just the ending.

"diabetes" matches the audio

Explanation: "was because of diabetes" may look like a trick, but the speaker says it exactly as printed. Do not click it.

"blood" matches the audio

Explanation: "even people whose blood" may catch your eye, but the speaker says "blood" exactly as printed. Do not click it.
