What Modifies the Effect of an Exercise Treatment for Chronic Low Back Pain? A Meta-epidemiologic Regression Analysis of Risk of Bias and Comparative Effectiveness
Authors: Niederer Daniel , Weippert Matthias , Behrens Martin
Published: August 2022

OBJECTIVE: To investigate how risk of bias and intervention type modify effect sizes of exercise interventions that are intended to reduce chronic low back pain intensity.

DESIGN: Systematic review with meta-epidemiologic regression analysis.

LITERATURE SEARCH: PubMed, CENTRAL, Embase, and CINAHL (until January 31, 2021).

STUDY SELECTION CRITERIA: Systematic reviews with meta-analyses of randomized controlled exercise trials.

DATA SYNTHESIS: The dependent variable was pain, calculated as standardized mean difference (SMD). Potential effect modifiers were risk of bias, exercise modes, study, and meta-analyses characteristics. Multilevel meta-regressions and inverse variance-weighted meta-regressions with random intercepts were modelled.

RESULTS: Data from 26 systematic reviews (k = 349 effect sizes, n = 18,879 participants) were analysed. The overall mean effect was SMD: −0.35 (k = 349, [95% CI −0.02 to −0.7]). There was a clinically relevant effect overestimation in studies with a high risk of bias due to missing outcomes (each k = 197, Beta coefficient = −1.9 [95% CI −2.9 to −.9]) and low sample size (B = 0.01 [.001 to .01], [ie, one participant more leads to an SMD decrease of 0.01]). There was a clinically relevant underestimation of the effect when studies were at high risk of bias in allocation concealment (B = 1.3 [.5 to 2.1]) and outcome measurement (B = 1.3 [.44 to 2.0]). Motor control and stabilization training (B = −1.3 [−2.3 to −.37]) had the largest effects; stretching (B = 1.3 [−.03 to .5]) had the smallest effect.

CONCLUSIONS: The effects of exercise trials at high risk of bias may be overestimated or underestimated. After accounting for risk of bias, motor control and stabilization exercises may represent the most effective exercise therapies for chronic low back pain.

Published: August 2022

Background:

The aim of the study was to describe the origin, course, and termination of frontal aslant tract (FAT) in the Mexican population of neurosurgical referral centers.

Methods:

From January 2018 to May 2019, we analyzed 50 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies in diffusion tensor imaging sequences of patients of the National Institute of Neurology and Neurosurgery “Manuel Velasco Suárez.” Five brains were fixed by the Klingler method and dissected in the neurosurgery laboratory of the Hospital Civil de Guadalajara to identify the origin, trajectory, and ending of the FAT.

Results:

FAT was identified in 100% of the MRI and brain dissections. The origin of the FAT was observed in 63% from the supplementary premotor area, 24% from the supplementary motor area, and 13% in both areas. Its ending was observed in the pars opercularis in 81%, pars triangularis in 9%, and in both pars opercularis and ventral premotor area in 10% in the magnetic resonance images, with a left side predominance. In the hemispheres dissections, the origin of FAT was identified in 60% from the supplementary premotor area, 20% from the supplementary motor area, and 20% in both areas. Its ending was observed in the pars opercularis in 80% and the pars triangularis in 20%. It was not identified as an individual fascicle connected with the contralateral FAT.

Conclusion:

In the Mexican population, FAT has a left predominance; it is originated more frequently in the supplementary premotor area, passes dorsal to the superior longitudinal fascicle II and the superior periinsular sulcus, and ends more commonly in the pars opercularis.

Published: August 2022

Background:

Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (HPS) is a serious complication. Recently, staged angioplasty has been reported as an effective strategy to avoid HPS. Severe calcification has been reported as contraindication of carotid artery stenting (CAS). In these cases, carotid endarterectomy (CEA) might be an alternative second stage treatment. We present a case of severe circular calcified plaque with hemodynamic impairments, treated with CEA following percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) to prevent HPS.

Case Description:

A 77-year-old woman presented with severe stenosis at the proximal left internal carotid artery. A CT scan of the neck demonstrated circular calcification. 123I-iodoamphetamine single-photon emission computed tomography (123I-IMP SPECT) showed reductions in cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral vascular reserve in the left hemisphere. Staged therapy was subsequently performed as this patient had a high risk of HPS after conventional CAS or CEA. In the first stage, PTA was performed under local anesthesia. Two days after the procedure, 123I-IMP SPECT revealed improvements in CBF. There were no neurological morbidities. CEA was then performed under general anesthesia 7 days later, for the second stage. We found a calcified plaque with a large thrombus at its proximal end. A hematoxylin-eosin stain of the thrombus showed mostly intact and partially lytic blood cells. Postoperative 123I-IMP SPECT revealed CBF was improved, with no hyperperfusion immediately and 2 days after CEA. The patient was discharged with no neurological deficits.

Conclusion:

CEA following PTA for severe circular calcified plaque can be an alternative treatment strategy to prevent HPS. A disadvantage is the formation of thrombi. Early CEA should be considered if thrombus formation is suspected.
L’exploitation des hydrocarbures en Algérie

Pour emprunter la voie de la croissance économique, les pays développés se sont longuement appuyés sur les revenus de leurs ressources naturelles. C’est notamment le cas de l’Australie (minerais), du Canada (pétrole, minerais) et des Etats-Unis (pétrole) mais également de l’Allemagne, de la France et de l’Angleterre (charbon). Il existe aussi des expériences récentes de pays qui ont assis une partie de leur développement économique sur leurs ressources naturelles. Les exemples de la Norvège (pétrole), du Chili (minerai de cuivre) et du Botswana (diamants) constituent une illustration. Malgré ces cas de réussite, les études empiriques montrent, de manière générale, l’existence d’une relation négative entre la richesse en ressources naturelles et la croissance économique connue sous le nom de « syndrome hollandais ». Généralement, les pays riches en ressources naturelles peinent à garantir une croissance durable de leur PIB contrairement aux autres pays pauvres en ressources naturelles. Disposant d’importants gisements de pétrole, l’Algérie fait-elle partie des pays qui ont basculé dans le syndrome hollandais ? Cette contribution tentera de répondre à cette question, d’identifier, le cas échéant, les conditions ayant présidé l’apparition du phénomène et de proposer des solutions.

Published: August 2022

Organic photothermal materials, especially those with near-infrared (NIR) absorbance and excellent photothermal properties, have attracted considerable attention for applications in energy conversion and biomedical therapy. In generally, synthesis of above organic photothermal materials require the use of high temperature, expensive noble metal catalysts, or UV lamp radiation. Herein, a facile [2+2] cycloaddition-cycloreversion ([2+2] CA-CR) reaction is employed for the efficient synthesis of nonplanar molecule (2ATPE-2F4) containing triphenylamine (TPA) and 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4-TCNQ) under ambient conditions by taking advantage of its click feature, atom-economic, unity yield, and simple purified procedure, etc. The resultant product exhibits exceptional properties including broad absorption edge over 1000 nm, and substantial radical characters with paramagnetic behavior, etc. Excitingly, it exhibits excellent photothermal properties and the temperature could be swiftly increased to as high as 450 °C in solid powder upon photo-irradiation. Thanks to the excellent photothermal properties, 2ATPE-2F4 was used for the construction of high temperature (> 200 oC) shape memory actuators triggered with NIR light. In addition, upon assembling the 2ATPE-2F4 into nanoparticle (2ATPE-2F4 NPs), it displayed good biocompatibility, excellent photothermal stability, and high photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE), enable it to be used to realize high-efficiency photothermal therapy. This work demonstrates the excellent potential of [2+2] CA-CR reactions for the synthesis of high-performance organic NIR photothermal materials.
Aplicación de Machine Learning en la Gestión de Riesgo de Crédito Financiero: Una revisión sistemática
Authors: Hermitaño Castro Juler Anderson
Published: August 2022

La gestión de riesgos bancarios puede ser dividida en las siguientes tipologías: riesgo crediticio, riesgo de mercado, riesgo operativo y riesgo de liquidez, siendo el primero el tipo de riesgo más importante para el sector financiero. El presente artículo tiene como objetivo mostrar las ventajas y desventajas de la implementación de los algoritmos de machine learning en la gestión de riesgos de crédito y, a partir de esto, mostrar cuál tiene mejor rendimiento, señalando también las desventajas que puedan presentar. Para ello se realizó una revisión sistemática de la literatura con la estrategia de búsqueda PICo y se seleccionaron doce artículos. Los resultados reflejan que el riesgo de crédito es el de mayor relevancia. Además, algunos de los algoritmos de machine learning ya han comenzado a implementarse, sin embargo, algunos presentan desventajas resaltantes como el no poder explicar el funcionamiento del modelo y ser considerados como caja negra. En ese sentido, desfavorece la implementación debido a que los organismos regulatorios exigen que un modelo deba ser explicable, interpretable y transparente. Frente a ello, se ha optado por realizar modelos híbridos con algoritmos que no son sencillos de explicar, como aquellos modelos tradicionales de regresión logística. También, se presenta como alternativa utilizar métodos como SHAPley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) que ayudan a la interpretación de dichos modelos.
Державна підтримка та стимулювання розвитку бізнесу в Україні під час дії воєнного стану
Authors: Мельник Тетяна Юріївна
Published: August 2022

Військові дії на території нашої держави негативно впливають на функціонування та розвиток усіх суб’єктів бізнесу і завдають нищівних руйнувань економіці. В той же час робота українського бізнесу під час війни є особливо важливим джерелом наповнення держбюджету та створення робочих місць. Тому для України наразі особливо актуальними є розробка та реалізація обґрунтованої та ефективної державної політики підтримки розвитку бізнесу з метою створення сприятливих умов для його організації та ведення. З урахуванням зазначеного статтю присвячено дослідженню прийнятих урядом програм державної підтримки та стимулювання розвитку підприємництва в умовах війни. На основі проведених досліджень обґрунтовано, що під державною підтримкою необхідно розуміти державне регулювання підприємницької діяльності, яке передбачає, перш за все, свідоме формування державними структурами відповідних прямих та опосередкованих інструментів підтримки бізнесу, зокрема, створення стимулів, використання матеріальних, фінансових та інших ресурсів, що залучаються для його суб’єктів. Пріоритетність державного регулювання та підтримки підприємництва в умовах війни зумовлює необхідність переходу від прямого адміністративного сприяння до формування сприятливого економічного і соціального середовища щодо удосконалення механізмів та інструментів стимулювання розвитку суб’єктів бізнесу. В статті досліджено зміни в законодавстві, які стосуються політики оподаткування суб’єктів господарювання в особливий період, зокрема щодо нарахування і сплати єдиного податку та єдиного соціального внеску. Обґрунтовано ліміти та правила роботи в сфері сплати податків для фізичних осіб-підприємців під час дії воєнного стану. Визначено, що такі зміни нададуть можливість суб’єктам бізнесу заощадити кошти на сплаті податків та інвестувати їх в подальшу господарську діяльність і, таким чином, підтримувати та розвивати її. Проаналізовано зміни, які стосуються проведення перевірок, нарахування штрафів та пені під час дії воєнного стану, та на цій основі визначено, які перевірки дійсно скасовано, а які можуть бути проведені. Також проаналізовано умови запровадженої урядом програми релокації бізнесу та зміни, які були внесені до програми «Доступні кредити 5–9 %». Проведені дослідження свідчать, що на сьогоднішній день українським Урядом була прийнята низка рішень, які передбачають тимчасові послаблення та підтримку для бізнесу під час дії воєнного стану. В той же час недоліки і складнощі, з якими стикаються в процесі функціонування господарські суб’єкти, свідчать про необхідність синхронно розвивати як державну систему підтримки бізнесу, так і ініціативу підприємців, малих і середніх підприємств з об’єднання зусиль у сфері державно-фінансової діяльності. Обґрунтовано, що актуальним є питання удосконалення системи інформаційної та консультативної державної підтримки бізнесу з метою стимулювання його розвитку.
A Roda da Central: a capoeira de rua carioca, décadas de 1950 a 1970
Authors: Röhrig Assunção Matthias
Published: August 2022

A Roda da Central acontecia durante o carnaval no Rio de Janeiro desde os anos 1950 até a construção do sambódromo, em 1983. A roda não parava – eram 24 horas por dia, durante os três dias e noites do carnaval, em um local improvisado, entre o glamoroso desfile oficial das escolas de samba na Avenida Presidente Vargas e a estação de trens Central do Brasil, que liga a cidade a seus subúrbios, e por onde circulava grande parte dos foliões. Apesar da farta documentação sobre os desfiles, nenhum registro ou foto documenta a Roda da Central. Este artigo se baseia no testemunho precioso de quinze mestres que protagonizaram essa roda. Suas memórias documentam os tipos de ritmos tocados e os jogos duros e frequentemente violentos que aconteciam num contexto volátil de repressão e clientelismo. Trabalhadores portuários, na sua maioria negros, foram inicialmente os principais personagens, gradualmente substituídos por uma geração mais jovem e diversificada, para quem jogar seu primeiro jogo na Roda da Central era um rito de passagem. O exemplo da Roda da Central mostra como a história oral pode reequilibrar a narrativa da história da capoeira, muitas vezes centrada em sua modalidade oficial mais próxima da ginástica desportiva.

Characterizing the Extent of Genetic Aberrations in Glioblastoma Multiforme using Bioinformatics Tools. (c2022)
Authors:   ,   Lebanese American University, Al Ghafari Marcelino
Published: August 2022

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) are considered the most common type of brain cancer. They are known for their high mortality and morbidity. Advances in genetics and molecular understanding of GBM can explain the failure of many targeted therapies. As a result of this, the World Health Organization (WHO) have updated the classification to provide more accurate diagnosis and treatment. As a result of this WHO classification, GBM emerged to be a group of complex disease with several mutations and different manifestations. Thus, it is important to study the nature of each tumor to apply the right therapy for it. For this reason, bioinformatics is becoming a fundamental pillar in the field of cancer biology. Bioinformatics yields and generates massive data that, through the right tools, can be analyzed, interpreted and then transferred to be applied to cancer therapeutics. Many tools are available online. In this study, cBioPortal for Cancer Genomics (http://cbioportal.org) has been used. This platform is a web resource for studying, viewing, and interpreting cancer data. The data collected from cBioPortal were analyzed using Cytoscape, which generated a network showing the mutual exclusivity of the genes of interest. In addition to this, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were studied using Ensembl and MutationTaster to predict their oncogenicity. All of this provide a general overview of how the study of genetic aberrations in GBM can be accessible through bioinformatics tools. It emphasizes on the importance of such tools coupled with precises analysis to determine the best therapy for cancer. In this paper, genes related to GBM are highlighted and analyzed using cBioPortal, Cytoscape, and MutationTaster. The results highlight the importance for knowing the oncogenic nature of mutations which helps in targeted therapy. In addition to this, a comparison between Lebanese GBM patient samples and cBioPortal samples. This aims to give new understanding of the pathways altered in GBM, methods of therapy, chemoresistance, and autophagy.

Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common pathogens in biofilm-associated chronic infections. S. aureus that live within biofilms avoid the host's immune response and are more resistant to antibiotics than planktonic bacteria. The current study was conducted to evaluate the antibacterial, antibiofilm and antivirulence of seven antibiotics (Ciprofloxacin (CP), Gentamicin (GEN), Tetracycline (TET), Amikacin (AMK), Clindamycin (CLI), Erythromycin (Ery) and Vancomycin (VAN) against S. aureus. The effects of seven antibiotics (CP, AMK, VAN, TET GEN, Ery and CLI) on S. aureus planktonic and biofilm were determined via Antibiotic susceptibility test, Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC), Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC), disruption of microcolony, biofilm inhibition and degradation (crystal violet staining) and RT-qPCR. Antibiotic susceptibility test showed that CP, AMK, VAN, TET GEN, Ery and CLI has antibacterial activity against S. aureus with an inhibition zone of 28 mm, 21 mm, 27 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, 27 mm and 19 mm respectively. The results showed that CP and AMK possessed the lowest MIC value against S. aureus with 0.125 µg/mL and 0.25 µg/mL for VAN, TET and GEN and 1.0 for Ery and CLI. The recorded values for MBCs were 0.25 μg for CP and AMK for S. aureus, 0.5 μg for vancomycin, tetracycline and gentamicin for S. aureus and 1.0 μg for Ery and CLI for S. aureus. Notably, CP and AMK demonstrated considerable efficacy, as shown by the low values for MIC; 0.125 μg and MBC; 0.25 μg for S. aureus. All antibiotics were found to disrupt microcolony formation in S. aureus at MIC of each antibiotics. At 0.25 μg concentration to 8 μg concentration of each antibiotic were significantly found to degrade and inhibit biofilm formation of S. aureus. The RT-qPCR showed that four genes including argF, purC, adh, and fabG were downregulated, whilst, three genes including scdA, pykA and menB were upregulated after exposure to CP, AMK, VAN, TET GEN, Ery and CLI. This study showed the efficacy of seven antibiotics against planktonic, biofilm, gene expression and that different concentrations of antibiotics have different degrees of potential effect on established biofilm. In addition, a decreased expression of virulence genes in S. aureus will impact their pathogenicity. These results provide the theoretical parameters for the selection of effective antimicrobial in clinical therapy and demonstrate how to correctly use antibiotics at MIC and sub-MIC as preventive drugs.

Published: August 2022

This study aims for exploring the relationship between public services value and organizational citizenship behavior and investigating the moderating effects of goal and job clarity on this relationship. On the basis of the person-organization and person-job fit theories, we examined the impact of public services value on organizational citizenship behavior and how goal and job clarity condition the relationship between public service value and organizational citizenship behavior, building on the contingency theory in the Korean government. To test our hypotheses, we analyzed data from the 2020 Public Employee Perception Survey administered by the Korea Institute of Public Administration, using the hierarchical linear regression method. The statistical results showed a positive association between public service value and organizational citizenship behavior. Further analysis revealed that goal and job clarity enhanced the positive relationship between public service value and organizational citizenship behavior. Accordingly, our findings imply that to facilitate organizational citizenship behavior in public sector organizations, public managers must implement human resource management practices to internalize public service value in public employees and make organizational goals and jobs clear.

Published: August 2022

This study explores the influence of IELTS examiners' New Zealand accent (aka, Kiwi accent) on the speaking performance of 45 men and women Iranian IELTS candidates within the framework of communication accommodation theory (CAT) from the post-structuralism perspective in which identity is considered to be a dynamic approach. This is a mixed-method explanatory sequential design in which the candidates' speaking scores on a real IELTS test were compared to their scores on a mock test through employing a paired-samples t-test for each group of language proficiency (B2, C1, and C2). A semi-structured interview was also conducted to extract information about participants' feelings when facing the Kiwi examiners. The results revealed that 1) the candidates' self-identification and 2) their level of proficiency indicated how their performance was influenced by the Kiwi examiners' accent. Participants with B2 (band score 5.5-6.5) and C1 (band score 7-8) proficiency, Kiwi accent accentuated the differences of ethnicity and identity. They also attended to L1 cultural issues as a barrier. None of these issues were found in C2 participants (band score 8.5-9). IELTS instructors are to consider the candidates' identity features and cover all the main accents of English native speakers in their preparation programs.

This study offers an analysis of the linkage between farmers-herders’ conflict and the goal two of the sustainable development goal in Benue State of Nigeria. The sustainable development goal which is a global movement addresses a number of issues one of which is zero hunger. However, the farmers-herders’ conflict has increasingly made the actualization of zero hunger difficult. With the use of secondary sources of data, this paper examines the negative experiences of farmers-herder’s conflict in Benue State and the challenges of coping with the conflict despite the existence of an anti-open grazing law. Theory of Eco-violence was adopted as the theory underpinning this study. This study which was content analyzed argued that food security is a critical aspect of society and all hands must be on deck to wrestle with whatever constitutes a threat to it. This study found that the goal two of the sustainable development goal, which centers on zero hunger, has not been achieved due to the lingering killings of farmers despite government’s response in the area of promulgating an anti-open grazing law in the State. The study also found that the effects of the conflict to lives and livelihood are enormous. The recommendations proffered by this study includes the adoption of a pragmatic, proactive and collaborative approach by government at all levels and the governed in the fight between farmers and herders as this will help to achieve a long-lasting reconciliatory solution between the two main parties involved in the conflict.

The study aims to determine and compare bone mechanical and material properties in experimentally diabetic rats treated with ginger extract. Forty female, healthy Wistar albino rats were used in the study. Rats were divided into five groups; Control (C), Sham (S), Ginger (G), Diabetic (D), and Diabetic rats treated with Ginger (DG). Diabetes mellitus was induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of 50 mg/kg streptozotocin. Ginger-treated rats received 200 mg/kg ginger extract by oral gavage in a 30-day-trial. At the end of the study, tibiae were harvested and subjected to a three-point bending test. Plasma samples were also analyzed for calcium and phosphorus concentrations. It was observed that the bending strength significantly decreased in the groups Ginger (234.78 ± 16.79; P = 0.019) and the Diabetic (223.90 ± 29.90; P = 0.028) compared to group Control (275.75 ± 33.47). In addition, the bending strength of the diabetic rats treated with ginger (DG group; 251.92 ± 15.90) was also significantly higher than the rats in the Ginger and Diabetic groups (P = 0.032 and P = 0.037, respectively). Although the plasma calcium concentrations showed no differences among any of the groups, the plasma phosphorus levels decreased significantly in group Diabetic (3.47 ± 0.28; P = 0.05) compared to Control (5.11 ± 0.21). However, there was a significant increase in plasma phosphorus in group DG (4.32 ± 0.12; P = 0.05) compared to Diabetic. In conclusion, ginger extract treatment of diabetic rats improves bone material properties. The adverse effects of diabetes on the mechanical properties of the bone were prevented by using ginger extract in diabetic rats.

Микровзрывная фрагментация является ключевым явлением, на котором базируются современные методики вторичного измельчения композиционных топлив в промышленности. Реализация соответствующих процессов позволяет в кратное число раз (от 10-15 до 100-200 раз) уменьшить размер вторичных капель относительно начальных значений размеров родительских капель, формирующихся при распаде струй. В настоящем исследовании приведены результаты изучения коллективных эффектов при формировании вторичных фрагментов микровзрыва капель композиционных топлив. Проанализированы характеристики вторичных фрагментов при микровзрывной фрагментации группы из трех капель композиционных топлив. Использованы две топливные композиции: 90% дизельное топливо, 10% вода и 10% дизельное топливо, 90% вода. С помощью метода теневой съемки (Shadow Photography, SP) определены типичные размеры вторичных фрагментов, образующихся при фрагментации каждой из трех капель в группе. Установлены предельные расстояния (от 8 до 10 радиусов) между каплями, при которых интегральные характеристики фрагментации группы капель удовлетворительно соответствуют аналогичным характеристикам распада одиночных капель. При меньших расстояниях между каплями зарегистрированы существенные отличия характеристик вторичных капель, формирующихся в результате микровзрывной фрагментации композиционных топлив.

Методом молекулярной динамики (МД) в программном пакете LAMMPS (Large-scale Atom-ic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator) с использованием реакционного силового поля ReaxFF-lg были рассчитаны изотермы нереагирующего вещества PETN в диапазоне давлений до 30 ГПа. Были получены значения коэффициента модуля всестороннего сжатия Ко = 9,6 ГПа и производной модуля сжатия Ко по давлению К'о = 8,0, которые можно использовать как параметры термического уравнения Берча-Мурнагана 3-го порядка. Были подобраны коэффициенты уравнения состояния (УрС) в форме Ми-Грюнайзена, часто используемого для моделирования теплофизических свойств вещества, в том числе при статическом и ударно-волновом сжатии. Для нахождения коэффициентов УрС применялся метод построения изохорно-изотермического потенциала твердых веществ в форме квазигармонического приближения Эйнштейна. Верификация полученных результатов показала хорошее согласие с экспериментальными данными в широком диапазоне изменения давления и температуры, в том числе вдоль ударной адиабаты.

Can in-service health professional training improve the resuscitation of seriously ill newborns and children in low-income countries?
Authors:   Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute, Switzerland, Steinmann Peter
Published: August 2022

Mortality among seriously ill neonates and children remains high in many low -income countries, even in healthcare facilities with professional staff. Most of these deaths occur within 48 hours of admission. In-service training courses in the emergency care of neonates and children are targeted towards professional healthcare staff. This is seen as a way of reducing mortality through training. However, most courses have been developed in high-income countries and their potential effectiveness in low-income country settings is unclear.

Authors:   Instituto de Efectividad Clínica y Sanitaria, Buenos Aires, Argentina, Ciapponi Agustín
Published: August 2022

World-wide, cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women and more than 85% of women dying from cervical cancer live in the developing world. Increasing the uptake of screening, alongside increasing informed choice, is key to controlling this disease through prevention and early detection. Methods of encouraging women to undergo cervical screening include invitations to screening; reminders to attend screening; education to increase knowledge of screening programmes or of cervical cancer; message framing (positive or negative messages about screening); counselling regarding barriers to screening; risk factor assessment of individuals; procedures, such as making the screening process easier; and economic interventions, such as incentives to attend screening.

Authors:   KEMRI-Wellcome Trust Research Programme, Kenya., Opiyo Newton
Published: August 2022

Critical appraisal is the process of assessing and interpreting evidence by systematically considering its validity (closeness to the truth), results and relevance to an individual’s work. The goal of formal training in critical appraisal skills is to help healthcare workers in understanding results of research studies and their relevance to patient care. This review focused on training for qualified health professionals in practice, and not health professional students.
