Scientific publications

We prefer to add trustworthy web-pages being updated on a regular basis but where the link (the URL) remains static. However, we will also add a few peer-reviewed scientific publications where appropriate. Peer-reviewed scientific publications are not updated so we will remove them when they are no longer up to date with recommended medical praxis. Links to publications are:
