Our reviews and full range of subjects - http://ent.cochrane.org/our-reviews Cochrane Reviews are updated every two years and new evidence from trials is incorporated.

That puts us 24th out of 53 review groups. Our most viewed abstract/PLS is ‘Ear drops for the removal of ear wax’ with 3,719 views, and is consistently in the top 20 most viewed reviews on the Cochrane Library (reaching 9th in the last 3 months).
