Cochrane plain language summaries

The Cochrane Summaries website aims to deliver "credible, accessible, and impartial information for patients and carers to improve understanding and promote shared decision making."  Each Cochrane summary page displays the full plain language summary and provides links to the abstract, the full review on TheCochraneLibrary.com, other reviews by the same review group and to podcasts, journal clubs, Practical Evidence About Real Life Situations (PEARLS), and news items where these are available.  It's a good place to start for an overview of a broad topic, and for referring to patients.
