Internationally recognized experts, pioneers, and opinion makers in
evidence-based medicine (EBM) provocatively recast endocrine policy
and practice in the light of EBM philosophy and principles. The
authors explain the past, present, and future of EBM; consider its
practical implications for endocrinology; demonstrate what the
"evidence base" is in EBM; and present illustrative case studies by
practicing evidence-based clinicians. Highlights include essays on
why cost-effective analyses are problematic, the contrast between
clinical investigations and large randomized trials, the role of
Cochrane reviews and meta-analyses, and the curriculum requirements
for training evidence-based endocrinologists.
