J., Van Der Windt, D. A., Von Korff, M., & Timmis, A. (2015). The science of clinical practice: disease diagnosis or patient prognosis? Evidence about "what is likely to happen" should shape clinical practice. BMC Medicine, 20. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12916-014-0265-4

BACKGROUND: Diagnosis is the traditional basis for decision-making in clinical practice. Evidence is often lacking about future benefits and harms of these decisions for patients diagnosed with and without disease. We propose that a model of clinical...
