What do these labels mean?
- Research
- Published in a medical journal and listed in PubMed. The second label tells you the kind of study. Randomized trials and systematic reviews are the strongest evidence. Case reports describe one or a few patients and are the weakest.
- Preprint
- A study posted online before other scientists have reviewed it. Results can change. Treat these as early findings.
- News
- Stories from news sites, hospitals, and other outlets. Appendicure has not reviewed them, and some may be inaccurate.
- New trial
- A clinical study newly listed on ClinicalTrials.gov in the past year. Use the Appendicure Trial Finder to search all open trials by mutation.
