The concept of journal club is known among physicians since the undergraduate years, particularly from the presentations of published studies in scientific reunions during different clinical stages. A parallelism can be drawn between the clinical activity of the general practitioner and a journal club. In fact, just as a consultation with the patient, a journal club implies to read (or hear) the article, to question certain aspects in order to obtain certain data, to wait for a guiding answer, to be attentive to details, and to get the essential (subjective). As a physical examination, it implies to inspect the study design, to palpate the limitations, and to strike the results in the community (objective). After a complete reading, the general practitioner will evaluate it (evaluation) and plan (plan) a change in his/her practice. This process takes place with the natural flow of a normal consultation, where the patient would be, in this case, the article itself.Downloads
