Sir, this morning I have a little time before the first patient arrives so there is an opportunity to catch up on the latest journals. First the current newsletter from HealthWatch, the organisation devoted to promoting evidence based clinical practice; most interesting.
Then to the current BDJ, to find yet another letter from J. Mew (Jaw surgery alternatives; BDJÂ 2013; 214: 376). What is it this time? It is argument by flimsy anecdote. Surely the BDJ, a peer-reviewed journal, can do better than this.
