I started on antiviral medications which<br />reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus<br />became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from<br />ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their<br />treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after<br />the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing<br />treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.MATINAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03056834682621326306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6800344987699528016.post-38307758138522753582008-03-07T19:59:00.000-08:002008-03-07T19:59:00.000-08:00I think this summary of how to critically review a...I think this summary of how to critically review an article is awesome, as psychsarah said. It's also helpful for those of us just starting out in academic careers who need to know what points to hit in order to be taken seriously.Killer of Sacred Cowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15419887858462670131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6800344987699528016.post-67258219070312640622008-03-06T08:27:00.000-08:002008-03-06T08:27:00.000-08:00Thanks, psychsarah!

I think you're right that I am kind of glossing over the fact that it can be difficult to critique studies when you don't have much background in the field or even much scientific background at all. <BR/><BR/>But I also think that science can be unnecessarily daunting for a lot of people, and you don't always need special training to be able to see that a story doesn't add up the way the authors say it does.Dr. LaWadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02239897162047844850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6800344987699528016.post-68849414102832511472008-03-06T07:05:00.000-08:002008-03-06T07:05:00.000-08:00I think this is a great summary of how to critical...I think this is a great summary of how to critically review an article. I hope it makes people realize the inherent biases and difficulties in interpreting research. <BR/><BR/>My only worry is that the average joe doesn't have the statistical and research skills to do what you recommend. I have a PhD and I don't feel comfortable evaluating research that is in areas outside my general area of expertise. <BR/><BR/>Great blog though-I'm so glad Big Fat Deal linked to it. I think you're doing a great job interpreting some of the research for those of us not so experienced in this area! Thanks!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
