Abstract
Big Data has been a buzzword in almost every possible field during the last few years. The rapid integration of massive amounts of information from diverse sources fed the hope for a new era also in health sciences. Following its impact on other fields (i.e., marketing and commerce), many authors hypothesized that, by dynamically merging diverse datasets and a mining process, groundbreaking conclusions would be obtained in almost every medical specialty. This would, allegedly, represent a paradigm shift on how research is performed and, as a consequence, a dramatic change in clinical practice1.
