What are good choices for medical sources on Wikipedia?[edit]
Good sources:
- are typically no more than 5 years old
- summarize secondary sources or many primary sources
- provide an overview of the current understanding of the topic
- combine the results of several studies
- are published independently of the research
For example:
- literature reviews or systematic reviews found in reputable medical journals
- academic and professional books written by experts in the relevant field, from a respected publisher
- medical guidelines or position statements from nationally or internationally recognized expert bodies
