title: [The Cochrane Skin Group].
abstract: Over the last 10 years, the advent of evidence-based medicine has caused a paradigm shift in medical thinking and clinical practice. The Cochrane Skin Group organizes, drafts, publishes, and updates systematic reviews of randomized clinical trials of therapeutic interventions in skin diseases to assist in evidence-based clinical decision making. This article provides background information on the history and operation of this group, including the process by which systematic reviews are prepared.
