4. Allow me to post a link to web site that explains "level of
evidence". http://www.eboncall.org/content/levels.html
This will be a good start for you. You seem to think a retrospective
review is good quality evidence, but in *fact* it is not. > evidence (of
5 with 1 being best).

You do not even know how to read your own posts. The chart you wanted me
to read lists 'outcomes research' as level 2, or B.
"Outcomes" Research; Ecological studies

Some retrospective studies are level 2b or 2c. They can never be classified
as level 1 evidence like a RCT.
