Abstract The BJS is committed to the practice of surgery based on scientific evidence. Each month we will publish a list of randomized trials and meta-analyses collated from English-language publications. A collection of all these papers will be available in the Scientific Surgery archive which will be held on the BJS website together with links to free Medline sites where the full papers can be accessed (see below for details). If you have recently published a randomized trial that has not been featured in Scientific Surgery, the Editors would be pleased to receive a reprint and consider its inclusion.
