Medical - Medical (general) / Clinical trials, statistical methodology
German term or phrase: negative Binominalverteilung
This is the full sentence and I'm having problems trying to work out all the different parts to it and what verbs relate to what and what should follow "wird".

"Der primär durch den Pitman-Permutationstest evaluierte Effekt der Behandlung auf 'neue Digitalulzera' wird durch eine verallgemeinerte lineare Modellierung mit dem Behandlungseffekt als festem Term in dem Modell und der Annahme, dass die Reaktionsvariable (d. h. 'neue Digitalulzera') der negativen Binominalverteilung folgt, bestätigt werden müssen."

Any help or suggestions on how to make sense of the entire sentence also appreciated.
