Evaluation of evidence-based medicine search skills in the clinical years     

Linton AM  Wilson PH  Gomes A  Abate L  Mintz M 《Medical reference services quarterly》2004,23(2):21-31

The librarians of the Health Sciences Library worked with the director of the Primary Care Clerkship to reinforce the principles of Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) searching, taught during the first two years of medical school, through an intensive workshop. The purpose of the program was to ensure that students apply EBM principles in a timely and effective manner in clinical situations. Working in teams led by a resident and librarian, students researched real cases and then evaluated the effectiveness of their approach to the problems. This paper outlines the rationale for the team approach, reviews the administration of a computer-based workshop, and discusses the evaluation process. Evaluation focused on both the current workshop and its implications for the informatics program presented to students during years one and two.  相似文献   

Which starting style is faster in sprint running--standing or crouch start?     

Salo A  Bezodis I 《Sports biomechanics / International Society of Biomechanics in Sports》2004,3(1):43-53

The purpose of this study was to further understand the biomechanical differences between the standing and crouch starting methods, and to investigate whether one of the starting styles provides better acceleration and proves to be faster. Six university track team sprinters performed 2 x 3 x 50 m trials. Digitised video, photocell timing, and velocity data revealed that during the first steps of the performance the standing start produced higher body centre of mass horizontal velocity than the crouch start. This may be due to the longer distance between the feet in the standing start, which caused longer push-off phases, and the work against gravity in the crouch start. However, this advantage in horizontal velocity disappeared by the 10 m mark, where similar velocities were recorded with both start styles. Further, there was no statistically significant difference between the two starting styles in horizontal velocity at the 25 m mark, nor in the time to reach the 25 m or 50 m mark. Regarding relay running, where athletes need to decide to adopt either a crouch start without starting blocks or a standing start, there seems to be no specific reason for outgoing athletes to use a crouch start, although this area warrants further investigation.  相似文献

Information overload within the health care system: a literature review     

Hall A  Walton G 《Health information and libraries journal》2004,21(2):102-108

There is a widespread view held by health clinicians that their work effectiveness is impaired by 'information overload.' Building upon a previous work by Wilson, a review of the literature was undertaken to look for the evidence of this. It was found that the literature, particularly in the context of the clinical environment, was limited. This review explores the diverse overarching theories of information overload, effects of the phenomenon that are perceived to occur and proposed solutions to this problem. Many of the papers noted an information explosion but only three authors explicitly attempted to measure both the quantity and the complexity of this information. It was also found that the typology of the information studied was severely limited with most studies exploring information such as guidelines, access to journals, research findings and other knowledge intensive areas. Solutions proposed seem to concentrate on technological means rather than exploring the use of humans either in management of information or as a step in the filtering process.  相似文献

力量素质和决定力量素质的诸因素     

A·H·沃罗比耶夫  郭廷栋  梅松 《中国体育科技》1982,(22)

沃罗比耶夫是苏联原国家举重队总教练,医学副博士,本人亦曾经多次创造90公斤级举重世界纪录。他在1977年所著《举重运动的生理学与训练》一书,系统地总结了苏联优秀举重运动员的训练经验,并使之与运动生物力学、运动生理学、运动医学紧密结合,融为一体。该书资料丰富,数椐处理严格、论据明确,科学性强。对我国举重教练员、运动员、运动医生有较大参考价值。由于时隔五年,个别论述已失之陈旧。本刊拟摘其精华,编译登载。本期刊登的是该书第二章“力量素质和决定力量素质的各种因素”的主要内容,以后将陆续编译刊登其它部分。  相似文献

Republican Scientific-Medical Library, The Republic of Armenia: progress and programs     

Braude RM  Shirinyan A  Zargaryan T 《Bulletin of the Medical Library Association》2001,89(1):45-50

In 1990, the Republican Scientific-Medical Library (RSML) of the Ministry of Health of Armenia in collaboration with the Fund for Armenian Relief created a vision of a national library network supported by information technology. This vision incorporated four goals: (1) to develop a national resource collection of biomedical literature accessible to all health professionals, (2) to develop a national network for access to bibliographic information, (3) to develop a systematic mechanism for sharing resources, and (4) to develop a national network of health sciences libraries. During the last decade, the RSML has achieved significant progress toward all four goals and has realized its vision of becoming a fully functional national library. The RSML now provides access to the literature of the health sciences including access to the Armenian medical literature, provides education and training to health professionals and health sciences librarians, and manages a national network of libraries of the major health care institutions in Armenia. The RSML is now able to provide rapid access to the biomedical literature and train health professionals and health sciences librarians in Armenia in information system use. This paper describes the evolution of the RSML and how it was accomplished.  相似文献
