There was no significant difference between the assessments by two groups of randomly-selected general practitioners on the effectiveness of the drug treatment for 19 common clinical conditions. The treatment of simple iron deficiency anaemia was considered the most effective and gained the highest consensus. Least effective, but not matched by worst consensus, was the drug treatment for obesity. The most widespread disagreement among the practitioners was for the effectiveness of the drug treatment of gastroenteritis.
两组随机挑选的全科医生对19种常见临床病症药物治疗效果的评估没有显著差异。单纯缺铁性贫血的治疗被认为最有效，且达成了最高共识。最无效但共识度并非最低的是肥胖症的药物治疗。医生之间分歧最大的是肠胃炎药物治疗的效果。
