Evidence-based practice is the cornerstone of modern gynecology. It involves integrating clinical expertise with the best available research evidence and patient values. Analytical and critical thinking are essential in evaluating the quality of research studies, understanding statistical data, and applying findings to clinical practice. For instance, when considering a new treatment for uterine fibroids, a gynecologist must critically appraise clinical trials for their methodology, sample size, bias, and relevance to their patient population.
