Question: How effective is an e-learning program based on international clinical guidelines in promoting beliefs more aligned with the current evidence for the management of low back pain among physiotherapists?
Design: Randomised controlled trial with concealed allocation and intention-to-treat analysis.
Participants: 106 physiotherapists who treat patients with low back pain.
Interventions: The experimental group received access to an e-learning program, based on recommendations of clinical practice guidelines for the management of low back pain, over a 6-week period.

The most common topic of research in dental education is assessing the effectiveness of self-instructional units in various formats compared to lectures covering the same material. Generally, these studies are of high methodological quality and reveal mixed results or results slightly favoring self-instruction. All such studies, save one, have been conducted in the context of various single schools, thus confounding the effects of self-instructional format with factors particular to schools and their students.
