    Summary: This book addresses the common criticisms of evidence-based healthcare, dispelling many of its myths and misconceptions, while providing a pragmatic framework for testing the validity of healthcare literature. It also helps readers to understand the central principles of evidence-based medicine, critically evaluate published data, and implement the results in practical settings. The readers are guided through each fundamental step of inquiry, from searching the literature, to assessing methodological quality, and appraising statistics. -- Publisher description

    Thirteen hybrid cell lines originating from the fusion of a BALB/c myeloma with strain A spleen cells were isolated each of which secreted an antibody with specificity for the carbohydrate of group A streptococci. The cell lines were stable over many in vivo passages in (BALB/c X A/J)F1 mice and secreted large amounts of antibodies into the serum and ascitic fluid of their hosts. Seven of the hybrid cell antibodies belonged to the IgM class, five were typed as IgG2a and one as an IgA immunoglobulin.
