What does the primary outcome measure?

ASES Assessment (time frame: 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years, 5 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
