Cochrane Sweden has published the first Cochrane Review summary in Swedish! We hope that this can facilitate the use of Cochrane evidence in everyday clinical practice and in decision-making related to healthcare and health.

Tidningen Curie, a journal supported by Swedish Research Council, has published an article from TranspariMed and Cochrane Sweden about the report mapping the non-reporting of clinical drug trials in Sweden.

Clinical Trial Transparency Report: Results are missing for over 200 drug trials involving Swedish patients

Cochrane Sweden was recently featured in Lund University's Medical Faculty media."Every year, a large number of studies are published in the fields of medicine and health. A study might deal with, for example, answering questions about how effective a treatment is. But to what extent can you rely on results of a study, and what happens if you compile and examine the quality of all studies within the same field? Cochrane works to provide answers to these questions. The purpose? That more people shall have access to knowledge-based care and thereby better health."
