Evidence-based medicine (EBM) has become a watchword for "the new" medical practice in the new century. Whether it represents a paradigm shift or simply a codification of the scientific method in medicine will be debated for years to come. Regardless of the place of EBM in medicine, this "movement" has served an important role in moving physician practice into the realm of becoming more scientific (albeit empirical) and transparent. There are still many problems to be addressed in the global application of the best evidence for medical practice. These include low-quality studies, delays in implementation of clear-cut improvements, outright fraud and deceit, and wariness on the part of physicians to change their practice. By working to understand the underpinnings of EBM (basic statistical concepts and critical thinking) we can advance the practice of medicine along the moral high road of science.
