Abstract/Notes Excerpt: The purpose of this commentary is not to suggest that p values do not have a place in statistical reporting. To the contrary, the p value is a very useful statistic that provides important information regarding a data set. However, for certain research questions, the use of complementary measures such as risk statistics can by highly advantageous in assisting clinicians to apply research findings more directly to individual patients. Henceforth, it is not only crucial that clinicians are able to understand and interpret such figures, but that researchers also consider the advantages of incorporating the use of these statistical measures (when appropriate) into their study designs in order to allow clinicians to use their results more efficiently in their clinical practices.
