Re: Breast Cancer Survival Better After Lumpectomy Than Mastectomy
It is interesting although my first thought is that I wish research design and all that went with it was more strongly a part of medical training (as it is in PhD programs). Lots of medical research, easier to publish than in many disciplines, and many contradictory findings in general. I am not talking about this study in particular but (as the article says) not any real systematic attempt to determine why this might be the case. It is the more general problem that I am reminded of.
