Focus and Scope

European Journal of Scientific Research, published by European Journals Inc. collaborates with British Medical Association. are dedicated to providing physicians with the best research and important information in the world of medical research and science and to present the information in a format that is understandable and clinically useful. Committed to publishing multidisciplinary research that spans the entire spectrum of healthcare and medicine access, European Journal of Scientific Research aims at an international audience of pharmacists, clinicians, medical ethicists, regulators, and researchers, providing an online forum for the rapid dissemination of recent research and perspectives in this area.

European Journal of Scientific Research Evidence seeks to advance clinical trial research and clinical practice by:

• Publishing high-quality studies from the front lines of medical research.
• Challenging the medical community to take new approaches to clinical trial design and execution that yield more powerful clinical evidence.
• Sparking debate and conversation around areas of medicine where clinical decisions are made without sufficient evidence.
• Engaging physicians in a more sophisticated and meaningful way with clinical evidence.

Adhering to the rigorous peer-review and quality standards expected from European Journal of Scientific Research Evidence publishes:

• Original research, clinical trials, and other clinically grounded work (e.g., epidemiology studies, first-in-human trials, meta-analyses) that validate or challenge prior clinical findings.
• Standard reviews, systematic reviews, and other review types that contextualize research findings with the aim of accelerating clinical adoption of new evidence.
• Case studies and reviews of clinical trial methodology that enhance understanding of trial strengths and weaknesses.
• Curbside consult series that addresses common patient care issues.
• Morning Report series solicited case presentation articles that are delivered in a morning report format.

Generation of Evidence

The process of generating evidence is a key area of focus for European Journal of Scientific Research Evidence. We encourage readers to evaluate the reasoning behind the complex decisions that investigators make in trial design and execution, and to assess the quality of evidence produced in trials. Our goal is to build a community that takes a rigorous approach to evaluating evidence and assessing its impact on clinical decision-making.

Statistical Methods

European Journal of Scientific Research Evidence guides readers toward a deeper understanding of the statistical methods used in trials. We provide concise, digestible explanations of research methods to inform the interpretation of the resulting data. In addition, we introduce readers to emerging statistical methods and types of data that will play an increasingly prominent role in future trials.
