Critical analysis of a case report
In this session, we will assess a paper that is a case report on a patient with episodes of confusion and hypoglycemia. What was the diagnosis? Read the case report to find out! There will also be a short discussion on a case report and where it fits into the evidence-based pyramid. Learning Goals Learning […]
