A primer on reviewing and synthesizing evidence.

Abstract

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.
