Most read articles in December

Posted on by

The most read article in December was Bellis and colleagues’ study of mortality amongst rock and pop stars, which also received a great deal of press attention. The second most read was Rajavashisth et al‘s study of diabetes prevalence amongst marijuana users which was originally published way back in February 2012. Bergman et al‘s newly published paper on Vitamin D3 supplementation and frequent respiratory tract infections was also highly read.
