I agree on what the article says about newspaper headlines, and agree that many statistical studies are shaky because the authors have not properly understood statistics.
Of course, whoever wrote the Economist piece has never done a piece of biomedical research in his or her life, and Economist articles are not signed.

Thanks, Maxine. It's nice to have somebody who knows what she's talking about weigh in on these.
