Rock stars, hypnotics and the Olympics: Most read articles in January

Posted on by

 

The most read article in January was Doyle et al‘s recently published systematic review of the links between patient experience and clinical safety. Bellis et al‘s much discussed paper on rock star mortality was in second place, followed by Kripke et al‘s study of hypnotics and mortality, originally published almost a year ago.

Newly published papers in the top ten include Mahtani and colleagues’ analysis of whether the London Olympics will increase participation in sport and Rowlingson et al‘s mapping study of English GP prescribing data.
