@WorldofBooksltd Hi, I ordered a book from your Australian website but I would like to process a return. I have received no responses from sending multiple messages via their online contact form and the UK team via email haven't been able to solve this for me either! Many thanks!

This will be a good one! Tune in this Tuesday and get involved!

@DrEmilyClaire @CochraneUK Agreed. It would also be important to critically appraise and assess the methodological quality of the RCT's cited. #CochraneTrainees

@CochraneUK Echoing Becky's previous comments using words like 'weak evidence' and 'stronger evidence' are not helpful in this context given that at 12 months the effect was not statistically significant. #CochraneTrainees

[Dr Samer Al-Bothaigi @SalemSamer]

@CochraneUK Statistically significant may not be clinically significant
#CochraneTrainees

[evidencebasecamp @ebmcamp]

@DrRebeccaGould @CochraneUK I agree, I think the main point here is accurate reporting.. The words "weak evidence" are used for 12 months when they found no statistically significant difference.. #CochraneTrainees

[evidencebasecamp @ebmcamp]

@DrRebeccaGould @CochraneUK Yes and "failed to reach" is probably not the best way to describe statistical significance.. it either is or it isnt.. #CochraneTrainees

[evidencebasecamp @ebmcamp]

@DrRebeccaGould @CochraneUK Clear statements of effect size and precision estimates for all outcomes would definitely help interpretation! #CochraneTrainees

[evidencebasecamp @ebmcamp]

@Meisam_esfahani @CochraneUK Yes it would benefit from a clearer description of how this part of the study was conducted #CochraneTrainees

[evidencebasecamp @ebmcamp]

@SalemSamer @CochraneUK Yes a potential for confounding factors here.. #CochraneTrainees

[evidencebasecamp @ebmcamp]

@CochraneUK I think figure 1 is quite comprehensive for describing patient flow through the study #CochraneTrainees

[evidencebasecamp @ebmcamp]

@KinsengT @CochraneUK Especially since the acupuncturist themselves decided which treatments were indicated..like you say - maybe 6 different opinions/treatments! Could different practitioners have different approaches to the same treatment/technique? #CochraneTrainees

[evidencebasecamp @ebmcamp]

@DrRebeccaGould @CochraneUK There is also no justification for why they chose the SF-36 over the other two indices for a primary outcome.. #CochraneTrainees

[evidencebasecamp @ebmcamp]

@SalemSamer @CochraneUK Agreed! 💪

[evidencebasecamp @ebmcamp]

@Meisam_esfahani @CochraneUK What are your thoughts on the intra-operator variability - i.e. the variability in where the same operator may place the needles? Does it need to be that specific? #CochraneTrainees
