Abstract/Notes

Abstract: Regardless of argument to the contrary from academics ignorant of advances in evidence gathering, the Journal continues to place an emphasis on publishing case reports relevant to the discipline of Chiropractic.  Here we provide both our rationale and our updated guidelines which are drawn from the model of evidence-based healthcare developed by the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) of The University of Adelaide. We explain the philosophical principles of ‘aboutness’ and ‘consilience’ which significantly increase the value of a case report to allow agglomeration to better inform the clinical practice of Chiropractic. We celebrate that case reports are the fertiliser of research proposals and as such are critical to the informed development of Chiropractic as a science-based discipline.
