Formulating and empirically testing hypotheses lies at the core of the scientific method, and is a cornerstone for practicing evidence-based medicine – especially if and when the evidence base for a given problem may not yet be so well developed in the literature. Whether we realize it or not, every clinical encounter is essentially the buildup to generating a hypothesis – a framework for explaining how and why a set of problems arose, and then figuring out whether the available information supports or refutes the proposed explanation. A hypothesis is a testable, falsifiable question posed about the association between two variables.
