I have always felt this way about research studies too. How is one to know if the research is the "best evidence" to use despite biases? I am glad you are doing a series on this topic. Tim

Thanks for this brief, yet concise overwiev of clinical trials. I am currently in the process of writing my first research manuscript and I appreciate this series, since it offers another perspective on my work (It's interesting to see how a peer reviewer would go about appraising my paper). Looking forward to part 2 and 3 :)

Dear Dr Strong, first of all thank you for your fantastic videos, it's helped me a lot in medical school. Could you please recommend any books/websites that would aid in my understanding of EBM and Critical Appraisal further. Kind Regards.

Dear Dr. Strong, I wanted to say thank you for your great videos on medicine. They are an awesome, easy to understand, and practical for all of us in the training field. I've submitted a translation to spanish in the hope to reach out for our hispanic peers and improve healthcare moslty in Latin America. I have no other objective that to share knowledge and would be very helpful if you approve the translation. I'm a last year medical student at the Universidad de Panamá, and since this is the only way that I can get in touch with you, I'm writting to you by this mean. Hope you are well in this crazy pandemic times.

Kind Regards, Eduardo Wong.
