See a sample Journal Watch review here:
It’s a rare day in general practice when you don’t have to decide on which second generation antidepressant to prescribe, and here is a massive evidence base to help guide your choice: a 37-page analysis of 299 studies, prepared for the American College of Physicians. The result: they all work equally well, as far as anyone can tell. Mirtazapine probably starts working faster than most others: bupropion (which for some reason isn’t licensed for treating depression in the UK) has the fewest sexual side-effects, paroxetine the most. And about the important issue of habituation and withdrawal, we don’t seem to know nearly enough. http://www.annals.org/cgi/content/abstract/149/10/734

Hi!
ReplyDeleteJournal watch by Lehman is my first medical read every week, before going for rounds on the podcasts of the big four and the podcastless BMJ.
It is the best review I know of.
I did find (or create?) an rss for this service and it is on my reader and my igoogle page.
You can get an rss feed for almost every page or create one.
