Medical journalism, a world of aggressively competitive periodicals, may not always be based of valid,
reliable or accurate information. A large productivity and wide array of medical research literature makes
even the most virtuous scientists unable to gauge and assess through all of them hence a critical and
systematic analysis is required to endorse its reliability for best evidence-based practices, which no doubt is
the major backbone of medicine. By introducing critical appraisal, we can help the clinicians to avoid
reading flawed literature and prevent the incorporation of biased or untrustworthy information into their
practice. The world is more than ever competitive now (more than 12,000 new articles added every week
to the MEDLINE database) and to stay updated with new ideas, most recent developments, latest results,
functional and valuable technical progress with robust scientific evidence is becoming vital.
Critical appraisal of latest research, being an important skill to be mastered, is part of training of
postgraduate candidates (Clinical and Basic) currently practiced in many Universities in Pakistan. The
candidates, during critical appraisal, are vigorously trained for designing their own study and formulating the
research question through enhanced competence skills. They through pointing out the strengths,
weaknesses and limitations of any study, develop an in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge of
recent advances with thorough understanding of relevance of research topics for designing their own
research.
In this issue we are introducing Critical Research Periodical which has a different writing style than the regular
manuscripts published in any research journal. Generally, it should include two key parts; the state of the
field and major contributions of the research paper. State of the Field depicts the general background and
current difficulties in the field that particular research paper addresses. Sufficient details of major discoveries
are to be portrayed in results in a manner that it can be understood without looking at the primary article.
Additionally, a brief mention of the methods if applicable can be included. However, major contributions in
detail are a requisite.
