    • How serious is the risk of bias?
    • How do I apply the results to patient care?
  • Updated real-world examples drawn from the medical literature
  • New chapters that reflect the changing complexity of medical research and literature, including genetic association studies, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, network meta-analysis, noninferiority trials, quality improvement, and evidence-based medicine and the theory of knowledge
