Apparently, researchers that work with EBM and HTA like to speak of his finds for others researchers that works with EBM and HTA. It looks me that this vicious circle does with that the dissemination examples of the knowledge in EBM and HTA prompt the natural resistance by some researchers.

Bravo, Frederico!
If the EBM movement focuses on processes and methodological issues only (important though those are) and fails to address the issues of fair accurate and balanced translation of the best available evidence in ways that patients, the public and busy clinicians can readily understand, then we are in trouble.
Mammography screening is an excellent example of the issues. Most clinicans and almost all patients can't get to grips with relative and absolute risk despite 20 years of industrial strength, traditional EBM teaching and writing. We need to find ways of helping them that are innovative, because the current approaches are not working.

I don't agree, Douglas.
Debate about mammography screening is at present one of the most important methodologic arena for Evidence Base Health. We need to talk extensively about it.
Kind regards.

Just a quick reminder to list members, please don't post attachments to the list.
Instead you should either post a link to the document, or offer to email it to people who are interested.
Secondly, I think that this message would be better on a topic-specific list, such as one dedicated to women's health, rather than on EBH, which is about issues relating to the process of EBH.
I guess there may be generic, process-type questions which may arise from this, such as how to achieve truly evidence-informed patient choice, but I would look to the original author to state what that question is.
Thanks
Douglas
