Comparative Effectiveness Research

Comparative Effectiveness Research is an international, peer reviewed open access journal focusing on comparative effectiveness of health care including preventative health care strategies, diagnostic strategies, diagnostic technology, medical devices, drugs, medical technology, health systems and organisation.

Comparative Effectiveness Research seeks papers concerning all aspects of comparative effectiveness research. We welcome papers presenting empirical results from trials, observational studies, and research syntheses. We encourage papers discussing how effects are achieved and for whom (i.e., concerning moderation and mediation). We welcome papers reporting null findings. We encourage conceptual papers discussing theoretical, methodological, and analytical issues surrounding comparative effectiveness research.
