Editorial
A Primer on Reviewing and Synthesizing Evidence
Address correspondence to: Donald S. Likosky, PhD, Department of Surgery, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, Lebanon, NH 03756. E-mail: donald.likosky@dartmouth.edu
In this editorial, I shall describe methods commonly used for synthesizing evidence and review some contemporary examples of how this methodology has been applied to the peer-reviewed literature. It is my hope that the reader will find this interesting, but more importantly useful as you find yourself reading the evermore voluminous medical literature.
Key words: reviewing literature / methodology / study design
