Also Zen, I think the gist of this article is really about whether or not
the meta-researchers are correct when they try to assess the "quality"
of the individual studies being used in the meta-study, and they find that they can not.

It's not really about 90% of all medical research being wrong.
It's about evaluating "odds ratios".
