[url=http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2010/11/lies-damned-lies-and-medical-science/8269/]Lies, Damned Lies, and Medical Science[/url] It's worth a read in its entirety but for those looking to save time meta-researchers have found a very significant amount of medical research is misleading, exaggerated, or flat-out wrong. A study into the most cited studies in peer reviewed journals from the past 13 years showed deep flaws and the doctor leading this research, Dr. Ioannidis, estimates upwards of 90% of published medical information is flawed. A number of reasons are given to explain this. This is a pretty sobering look on medical research and health care in particular and the scientific community in general. The article doesn't go into specific detail but expressly states similar flaws are abundant in other areas of scientific research. I've question the objectivity of scientists for years concerning God, climate, etc. and it looks like there's very good reason to do so. It seemed interesting to me. Any thoughts?
