Excerpt

To promote evidence-based diabetes treatment, the Japan Diabetes Society (JDS) published, in February 2002, our first “Evidence-based Practice Guide for the Treatment of Diabetes in Japan” (J Japan Diab. Soc. 45, Supple 1, 2002). Since then, revised editions have been released every 3 years. Evidence-based medicine is a practice of medicine that attempts to integrate individual physician’s clinical expertise and the best external research evidence, and apply them to solve individual patient’s problems. The physician’s clinical expertise decides whether or not the information obtained from the literature can be applied directly to the individual patient. (Sackett, D.L. et al., BMJ 312: 71, 1996). …
