Welcome to the What’s the Data? Web Resource, a curated collection of clinical literature pertaining to
neurosurgery, neuro-oncology, spinal surgery, stroke neurology, and other related disciplines. Here you
will find an organized repository of many of the higher quality studies that help to shape medical
practice. This site is not, and is not intended to be, comprehensive. Important studies may be
excluded, and studies that are included may have been superseded by newer information. The
authors also cannot attest to the accuracy or completeness of each summary entry. Therefore, this
site should not be used in connection with the day-to-day practice of medicine, and the authors
assume no responsibility for its misuse in this way. The authors hope that this resource may provide a
useful framework for educators seeking to foster critical thinking and learners who desire a deeper
understanding than clinical guidelines can provide.
 
iPhone users are invited to investigate the suite of What’s the Data? Apps, available on the Apple App
Store, which provide helpful summaries of these studies in a quick and easy-to-read format.
