Small-study effects are a common threat in systematic reviews and may indicate publication bias. Their existence is often verified by visual inspection of the funnel plot. Formal tests to assess the presence of funnel plot asymmetry typically estimate the association between the reported effect size and their standard error, the total sample size,…

Noorani, Tehseen; Karlsson, Magnus; Borkman, Thomasina – Evidence & Policy: A Journal of Research, Debate and Practice, 2018
Background: This article charts the relationships between the model of evidence-based practice (EBP), healthcare markets where providers are increasingly competing through the adoption of EBP-certified interventions, and the cultivation of experiential knowledge within self-help and mutual aid groups (MAGs). After 35 years of neoliberal reform,…

In some randomized clinical trials, patients may die before the measurements of their outcomes. Even though randomization generates comparable treatment and control groups, the remaining survivors often differ significantly in background variables that are prognostic to the outcomes. This is called the truncation by death problem. Under the…

O.; Wyatt, Letisha R.; Covarrubia, Alonso Delgado; Zell, Adrienne; Adrienne, Thomas E.; Morris, Cynthia; Crespo, Carlos J. – Journal of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2021
Research experience provides critical training for new biomedical research scientists. Students from underrepresented populations studying science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) are increasingly recruited into research pathways to diversify STEM fields. However, support structures outside of research settings designed to help…

In response to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, a cancer research education program at the University of Nebraska Medical Center designed for Native American middle school, high school and undergraduate students adapted activities to be delivered online. There are considerable challenges to adapting in-person science programming to online delivery that…

Cousin, Carolyn – American Journal of Health Education, 2021
A cancer partnership was established between the University of the District of Columbia (UDC) and the Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center (LCCC) Georgetown University Medical Center in 2000 to focus on Cancer Prevention and Control. The major goal of the Partnership was cancer research, education, and cancer outreach. African American populations…

Dogo, Samson Henry; Clark, Allan; Kulinskaya, Elena – Research Synthesis Methods, 2017
Temporal changes in magnitude of effect sizes reported in many areas of research are a threat to the credibility of the results and conclusions of meta-analysis. Numerous sequential methods for meta-analysis have been proposed to detect changes and monitor trends in effect sizes so that meta-analysis can be updated when necessary and interpreted…

Wei, Wei – ProQuest LLC, 2017
Information retrieval techniques have been applied to biomedical research for a variety of purposes, such as textual document retrieval and molecular data retrieval. As biomedical research evolves over time, information retrieval is also constantly facing new challenges, including the growing number of available data, the emerging new data types,…

Zink, Holly R. – Research Management Review, 2018
The nation's leading academic hospitals aspire to being the leader in medical research, but as the role of medical research grows in size and complexity, many departments are left without proper research support or oversight. This research explored the need for a research administrative support program to resolve many of the issues facing faculty…

Leahy, Joy; O'Leary, Aisling; Afdhal, Nezam; Gray, Emma; Milligan, Scott; Wehmeyer, Malte H.; Walsh, Cathal – Research Synthesis Methods, 2018
The use of individual patient data (IPD) in network meta-analysis (NMA) is becoming increasingly popular. However, as most studies do not report IPD, most NMAs are performed using aggregate data for at least some, if not all, of the studies. We investigate the benefits of including varying proportions of IPD studies in an NMA. Several models have…

Donegan, Sarah; Welton, Nicky J.; Tudur Smith, Catrin; D'Alessandro, Umberto; Dias, Sofia – Research Synthesis Methods, 2017
Background: Many reviews aim to compare numerous treatments and report results stratified by subgroups (eg, by disease severity). In such cases, a network meta-analysis model including treatment by covariate interactions can estimate the relative effects of all treatment pairings for each subgroup of patients. Two key assumptions underlie such…

Al Khalaileh, Murad; Al Qadire, Mohammad; Musa, Ahmad S.; Al-Khawaldeh, Omar A.; Al Qudah, Hani; Alhabahbeh, Atalla – Journal of Education and Practice, 2016
Background: The nursing profession is a combination of theory and practical skill, and nurses are required to generate and develop knowledge through implementing research into clinical practice. Considerable number of barriers could hind implementing research findings into practice. Barriers to research utilisation are not identified in the…
