Social determinants of health and upper gastrointestinal cancer outcomes in the United States: A systematic review
Strategic policy options to improve quality and productivity of biomedical research
Emerging societal expectations from biomedical research and intensifying international scientific competition are becoming existential matters. Based on a review of pertinent evidence, this article analyzes challenges and formulates public policy recommendations for improving productivity and impact of life sciences. Critical risks include widespread quality defects of research, particularly non-reproducible results, and narrow access to scientif…
Healthcare via Cell Phones: A Systematic Review
Computerized Knowledge Management in Diabetes Care
INTRODUCTION: Many scientific achievements become part of usual diabetes care only after long delays. The purpose of this article is to identify the impact of automated information interventions on diabetes care and patient outcomes and to enable this knowledge to be incorporated into diabetes care practice. METHODS: We conducted systematic electronic and manual searches and identified reports of randomized clinical trials of computer-assisted in…
Effect of Linking Practice Data to Published Evidence: A Randomized Controlled Trial of Clinical Direct Reports
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of clinical direct reports (practice data with pertinent evidence from the literature) on dialysis modality selection for patients with end-stage renal disease. METHODS: A randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted at five dialysis centers. Five of the 10 physician participants were assigned through centralized computerized randomization to the intervention group (who receiv…
Methods of Randomized Controlled Clinical Trials in Health Services Research
The randomized controlled clinical trial is an increasingly used method in health services research. Analysis of methodology is needed to accelerate practical implementation of trial results, select trials for meta-analysis, and improve trial quality in health services research. The objectives of this study are to explore the methodology of health services research trials, create and validate a streamlined quality evaluation tool, and identify fr…
