Today's BMJ represents a minor triumph for GP-UK. Following a thread on this list Chris Derrett and I put together a letter, edited entirely via email, which is printed in this week's edition. Perhaps more will follow? Congratulations also to Sheila Teasdale on the publication of her leading article on the future of clinical audit. I was also interested in the editorial about the increased use of Bayesian statistics in medicine which referred to our 1982 paper showing that computers could be used to detect kidney transplant rejection earlier than the transplant surgeons. Only 14 years ahead of our time on this occasion ;-) Trims. ________________________________________________________________________ Dr Ian Trimble email: [log in to unmask] Sherwood Health Centre Elmswood Gardens Tel: +44 115 962 4516 Nottingham NG5 4AD Fax: +44 115 985 7899 ________________________________________________________________________ %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
