Study Design: Review Objective: To conduct a scoping review, and to determine trends and characteristics of spine research published by The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery (JBJS) from 2005 to 2015. Method: A PubMed search of all studies published in JBJS from 2005 to 2015 was performed using the keyword “spine”. A similar search was conducted on the JBJS website from 2005 to 2015 using the keyword “spine”. The study by Gartsman et al (2005) was used as the main reference for this study. Results:
Written Assignment Studies have shown that babies of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders descent are more two-three times more likely to be born prematurely then babies of non-Indigenous descent (Brown et al., 2016). Due to these results an evaluation will occur to determine the factors that are known to affect preterm birth. This assessment will focus on two peer reviewed articles and will reflect on the search strategy used, assess how each article relates to an increased knowledge of preterm
of various restorative conditions, most strikingly irresistible maladies. In spite of not being characteristically risky, it can cause uneasiness in parents and caregivers alike, and it is one of the main reasons why parents look to medical care. Evidence-based guidelines reliably express that the side effect of fever does not require treating and, therefore, the point ought to be to distinguish those children with a serious ailment and heightened comfort instead of standardizing temperature (National
yelled peer- reviewed articles that pertain to research surrounding diabetes education programs in reducing the A1C in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Each article was evaluated based on its applicability to the research question on this paper. The pattern used in selecting the articles included for evaluation can be found in the Appendix 1. The research strategies included key terms like diabetes, type 2, education, age, program, research, adult, and A1C. The search began with the CINAHL
The purpose of this quantitative study is to trend the outcomes of patients following discharge from an inpatient rehabilitation facility. This follow-up assesses the effectiveness of rehabilitations services and whether patients maintain or continue to gain function post discharge. 19. What quantitative research design is used? This non-experimental research uses descriptive statistical analysis, paired t-tests, and analysis of variance to examine the study variables. 20. Is the type of design

significant impact on the efficiency of their oropharyngeal swallow. Several studies have looked at the overall effect of drinking carbonated liquids in children with dysphagia, adults with dysphagia or those with a neurologic impairment. It is thought by some researchers that using carbonated beverages in dysphagia rehabilitation will trigger the swallow more easily, and may decrease the risk of aspiration. Each study investigated whether or not this was true, and if drinking carbonated beverages
The purpose of this evidence based research paper is to evaluate the efficacy of the cycles approach when compared to the traditional articulation therapy approach in the treatment of children who are highly unintelligible. The Cycles Phonological Remediation Approach (Hodson, 2011) is a treatment method for children with severe speech sound disorders. This approach targets phonological pattern errors in a sequential manner. During each cycle, one or more phonological patterns are targeted and after
