-

so) Evidence Based Medicine (EBM) Sources on the Open Web [PDF]. Giustini D,
University of British Columbia. Accessed on 2006-01-31. [My comments] An excellent list of

Cochrane, Clincial Evidence - BMJ, ACP Journal Club, eMedicine, National Guideline
Clearinghouse, Canadian Medical Association Clinical Practice Guideline Database, Bandolier,
