| Jun 20, 2012 at 13:10 | comment | added | Oddthinking♦ | @Russell: The example you gave (Paul, 2007) was one of only two that made it through the inclusion criteria for the first (acute cough) study. So, no, they didn't skip or exclude that one. Now that the links are fixed, have a look at their method and see if you still think it is deliberately biased. | |

| Jun 20, 2012 at 11:21 | comment | added | Russell Steen | Cochrane has skipped and excluded better research papers from their "review" than the ones they cite, such as archpedi.jamanetwork.com/article.aspx?articleid=571638. There have been several studies of hundreds of kids at a time and instead they cite a single study with a woefully insufficient sample size. I have to conclude that they found what they wanted to find, by design. That being said, the links above are dead so I can't do a more thorough assessment. | |
