Dear All,
Roughly continuing the theme started by Andrew Jull....
Do any members recall (references, authors etc.) when the term
'Gold Standard' was first used to describe RCTs or systematic
reviews? Also any references to the history of the RCT or systematic
review would be welcomed.
I look forward to any replies.
Jon
