A
Starter: Is
the peer-review system a guarantee for quality?
Most medical journals use the so-called peer-review system.
This implies that for being published all manuscripts are
scrutinized by one or two external specialists (referees) in
the issue. Here are the comments from five referees, who
were asked to review a manuscript by Uffe Ravnskov, sent to
and rejected by three different medical journals before it
was accepted for publication in Quarterly Journal of
Medicine without any changes. Dr. Ravnskov's comments were
also sent to the editors of the journals that rejected the
article.
Here
are
the objections by the referees together with Dr. Ravnskov's
responses
You can read the QJM article here.
Do you think that the huge number of papers worshipping the
cholesterol hypothesis have been met with similar comments?

Systematic Review BMJ 2001;322:757-763. Hooper and

findings they concluded that their study "certainly
provide support, at an individual level, for the
central role of dietary fat intake in the causation
of cardiovascular disease." Therefore, read
