There are few scientific papers that do not include the use of the P value to evaluate the statistical significance of results. However, use of this statistic may be misleading, as noted by a recent paper by Regina Nuzzo in the journal Nature. That paper served as a basis for commentary with additional examples by Drs. Jim Boyd and Tom Annesley in the July 2014 issue of Clinical Chemistry.
