When we measure something—such as muscle tone, rate of recovery, pulmonary capacity, or number of patients—those measurements are referred to as data. For research to hold value, the researcher must present these data in a way that conveys meaning to others. For instance, if a study compares two different facial rejuvenation protocols in patients with photoaged skin and only presents raw numerical values without interpretation, the results lack scientific significance. The researcher must present findings in a meaningful and interpretable manner.
