SummaryThe sound practice of medicine requires the ability to use scientific evidence that is based on data and is published in the peer-reviewed medical literature. In this literature, investigators publish their findings using descriptive statistics to summarize data and inferential statistics to test hypotheses.
Judgment is required in the choice of statistical tools and in the interpretation of statistical analyses. Physicians must have a basic understanding of statistics to benefit their patients by being informed and critical users of the medical literature.
