摘要
The term "prevention" is used with several different meanings. Mistakes can be avoided by using different word for different contents. In addition to clear definitions the most frequent forms of bias have to be avoided. These forms are related to the five dimensions such as targets and endpoints as well as methods of screening, diagnostic, and finally treatment. Unless the appropriate items are selected in all five dimensions the results of the prevention strategy will not provide valid information. © Georg Thieme Verlag KG. Stuttgart, New York.
