Abstract
Most papers published in medical journals contain analyses that have been carried out without any help from a statistician. Although nearly all medical researchers have some acquaintance with basic statistics, there is no easy way for them to acquire insight into important statistical concepts and principles. There is also little help available about how to design, analyze, and write up a whole research paper. A high level of statistical errors has been noted in several reviews of journal articles and has caused much concern. It has been suggested that comprehensive statistical guidelines could help by making medical researchers more aware of important statistical principles, and by indicating what information ought to be supplied in a paper.
