Please, Does anyone know who was creator of NNT?
I am not sure, but I know this is the reference where I first discovered the
term, and it led to my becoming an evidence-based physician--and changed my
life. In my opinion, one of the landmark articles in the history of
medicine. Here's the reference:
Laupacis A, Sackett DL, Roberts RS.
An assessment of clinically useful measures of the consequences of treatment.
N Engl J Med. 1988 Jun 30;318(26):1728-33.
Cheers and Best Wishes,
