trial outcomes

Jury's final decisions

Trial outcomes are the results of a trial—whether legal or scientific.

In court, trial outcomes include verdicts of guilty or not guilty, convictions, acquittals, or mistrials: The trial outcome hinged on DNA evidence.

In clinical research, trial outcomes are the measured effects being studied: The primary trial outcome was reduction in tumor size.

The phrase emphasizes finality and consequence.
