Critical appraisal meets clinical reality: evaluating evidence in the literature using canine hemangiosarcoma as an example.
The many gaps in our understanding of cancer are a great frustration for veterinarians and their clients. Unfortunately, what has been done has not always addressed the questions clinicians need answered. How can clinicians deal more effectively with the literature? Can missing information be identified, coped with clinically, and addressed by researchers?
