Debate around key articles: the first replies to dissents and author responses

March has been an exciting time for us here at F1000 Medicine. We already allow Faculty Member to submit dissents of evaluations, as well as encouraging authors to respond to the evaluations of their articles. This month, we have published our first Faculty replies to both a dissent and an author response.

Allowing Faculty Members to reply to dissents and author responses is yet another great way of enlivening discussion and encouraging debate around key articles within the medical community.

Read our first reply to an author response -- Todd Bull of the Respiratory Disorders Faculty responds to BG Stevinson et al.:

Echocardiographic and functional cardiopulmonary problems 6 months after first-time pulmonary embolism in previously healthy patients.


Read our first reply to a dissent -- Michael Strupp responds to a dissent made by Stefan Hegemann, both of the Neurological Disorders Faculty:

Early treatment with prednisolone or acyclovir in Bell's palsy.
