Dear all: This one looks like it will spark an interesting debate. I am not sure I can access the full article and the brief summary is simply not enough to judge the validity of the "metaanalysis". Plus, didn't it use to be a requirement to learn another language for med school? Maybe not, but I did have to have language courses for my BS and show I had another language for my PhD, so I don't know why they didn't at least translate the non- English articles. Here's a link to the summary of the article. http://cme.medscape.com/viewarticle/591097?src=cmemp Best Susan Burger *********************************************** Archives: http://community.lsoft.com/archives/LACTNET.html To reach list owners: [log in to unmask] Mail all list management commands to: [log in to unmask] COMMANDS: 1.
