Readers are introduced to the current statistical methods and tools which are needed to analyse and critically assess trialdata.Leading figures in the major specialties have selected and summarised the most important modern trials, creating a two-page format for each study which distils the key information; boxes identify the study type and evidence-level attained, while analysis of the impacts of thetrial place the evidence into a practical setting. Key study features and results are examined, while the difficulties or problems associated with the trials are also outlined.Other Details
