You don’t think an article’s abstract is significant Bayesian evidence? (How about the abstract of a meta-analysis?) Which is the weaker link here: from blog post to abstract or from abstract to actual paper?
Too many people dabbling in scientism these days with the internet making it easy to link to a few articles whose abstracts support your point.
Can’t have those unwashed masses linking to scientific papers now can we? :)
abstracts of meta analyses are significantly better. The problem with normal papers is that the abstract doesn’t always specify the methodology, effect size, and clinical relevance.
