The conquest of errors

چکیده
tioned above will suffer from cancer regardless of attempts to prevent the onset of cancer. Early detection and intervention prior to the irreversible fatal stage is the only option available to these patients. Thus, a sophisticated understanding of the role of chance ushers clinicians to the efficient diagnosis and treatment. Accurate interpretation of P-value estimated from statistical test of a hypothesis should be always provided to readers of articles to consider the degree of impact of chance embedded in the researchers’ findings. For instance, P=0.04 which means a 4% of chance alone in observing the outcome in the article gives clues to readers the similar outcome will be predictable in their clinics among 4% of patients by chance alone and 96% of patients by human endeavor. Scientist clinicians have a responsibility to produce scientifically valid evidence that will help inform other clinicians. Fighting with errors is the holy job of scientist; a metaphor of Sisyphus’ endless rolling a huge boulder up a steep hill of 0% errors in selection and observation of model samples. Harvey boiled down the essence of technology advancement of the human condition to the conquering of barriers in time and space. I would thus like to put forth the essence of clinical research activities that will advance human knowledge as the conquest of obstacles of errors including bias as well as chance.
