Abstract

The purpose of secondary publications is to alert clinicians to important advances in medicine whose results are most likely to be both true and useful. For this goal, they select from the biomedical literature the original and review artcles that are summarised in abstracts and commented by clinical experts. The most important secondary publications in pediatrics are AAP GrandRounds, PedsCCM Evidencie-Based Journal, the section of «Current Best Evidence» from the Journal of Pediatrics, the section of «Archimedes» from Archives Disease in Childhood, the section of «Atención Primaria Basada en la Evidencia» from Formación Médica Continuada, Revista Evidencia Actualización en la Práctica Ambulatoria y Evidencias en Pediatría. We review in detail Evidencias en Pediatría, a seconday publication in Spanish from the Asociación Española de Pediatría (Spanish Association of Pediatrics) (AEP) and endorsed by the Asociación Latinoamericana de Pediatría (Latin American Association of Pediatrics) (ALAPE) ©2013 Ediciones Mayo, S.A.
