TheNNT
Thanks for your edits. TheNNT is an interesting website but it is not peer-reviewed and therefore really not ideal as a source for medical content.
Of course the information on TheNNT is generally based on systematic reviews in other journals, and it would be preferable to cite those sources instead. See WP:MEDRS for the background. I have personally found TheNNT very nihilistic about some treatment modalities in widespread use. JFW | T@lk 10:12, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
