Worst of all, many doctors don't know math or statistics well enough to understand the significance of their findings. Remember, they are doctors, not mathematicians - two studies which seem to favor opposite brain wirings. I have reviewed a couple of papers unofficially and totally sacked one (before planned release) because statistics was misinterpreted. I'm not a statistician, either, but I know enough to see problems in many papers just by reading them. I guess that's why most doctors don't evaluate papers themselves, but do that in groups, or ask a doctor with the right skills.
