A review and practical application of evidence based medicine (EBM): Testicular adrenal rest tumour.

Amir M I Babiker1.   

Abstract

Nowadays, Medical practice is largely based on the best available evidence. However, the evidence may not always be readily available and clinician and/or other health allied professionals may need to learn how to search for it. This article gives highlights on the very vast and growing subject of evidence based medicine (EBM), followed by a practical application of searching for it in the real life, in a situation when the available evidence is limited.
