Top 10 "Dr. Journal" Articles for June, 2004
The following list is taken from Medscape, a medical site which brings medical journal articles and breaking news to physicians. Dr. Myatt reads this daily.
I can't offer direct links to the articles because the website is a password-protected, physician's only site, but the following list is grabbed directly from the front page. "CME" refers to the fact that reading the article and taking a post-test qualifies for Continuing Medical Education credits for doctors. I have bolded the topics that I believe will be of particular interest to laymen, and I'll be commenting and following up further on these in today's HealthBeat newsletter. Here's the list:
