Evaluation of a Scientific Study – Evidence Based Medicine
Wander over to the Evidence Based Medicine section of the website which has recently been opened!
Here you will have an opportunity to review an excellent series from the BMJ by senior lecturer Trisha Greenhalgh entitled “How to read a paper.” This series goes through the basics of a systematic approach on reading, analyzing and critiquing a scientific paper. The BMJ has consistently been a reliable resource for evidence based medical practice sticking to their motto “Helping doctors make better decisions.” Enjoy!
This should at least provide a starting point for our young medical colleagues as well as a good review for the more experienced ones in the art of scientific investigation and evidence based medical decision making. As always please feel free to leave comments and suggestions. Remember, this is an open forum, become part of it!
