Systematic Review On Non Communicable Disease

For example, “Hospitals have seen an influx of patients suffering from preventable diseases, the aid group said”. These preventable diseases can include diarrhea, typhoid, hepatitis A, and most commonly malaria. Two out of every five children survive into their adulthood; because of unsanitary conditions, these diseases which are not prominent in well developed countries, have pronounced themselves as some of the most dangerous diseases in the country. This decrease of sanitation can be partially blamed on the ongoing war in the Congo. The rebel groups use children soldiers to fight their opponents. Furthermore, hospitals reported that, “Since government troops and rebels began clashing in the volatile eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo, ‘the numbers arriving at the hospital have gone through the roof,’ said Dr. Louis Kamate of the Virunga Referral Hospital in Goma”. Conflicts and poverty have been proven to be the main factors of child death in the Congo. In order for the society to be successful, they must put an end to this terrible aspect of the country.

The purpose of a systematic review is to attempt to find, evaluate and synthesize high quality research relevant to the research question. A systematic review uses carefully developed data collection and sampling procedures that are put in place in advance as a protocol. (Polit, 2012). A systematic review must contain the following: a clear inclusion and exclusion criteria, an explicit search strategy, systematic coding and analysis of included studies, and a meta-analysis if possible. (Hemingway & Brereton, 2009). Systematic reviews are conducted by nurse researchers to avoid reaching incorrect or misleading conclusions that

The study was a systematic review of scientific papers selected by a search of the SciELO, Cochrane, MEDLINE, and LILACS-BIREME databases. Among the 2169 articles found, 12 studies proved relevant to the issue and presented an evidence strength rating of B. No publications rated evidence strength A. Seven of the studies analyzed were prospective cohorts and 5 were cross-sectional studies.

A non-communicable disease is where the disease cannot be transmitted from person to person. Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is one of the most common and worst non-communicable diseases and has been around for a long time and killed many people. This disease occurs when the blood vessels contributing to the heart muscle stop, stopping the heart from getting oxygen. CHD has many impacts on individual, economic, and political.

Both clinicians who are enquiring clinical questions and researchers who are conducting in-depth searches for systematic reviews come across a few

According to a report published by John Hopkins University the major cause of deaths in emergency and post-conflict situations are those caused by outbreaks of disease. These outbreaks are reported to raise baseline death rates "sixty times." ( ) The primary killers in complex emergencies over the past ten years are reported as "malaria, diarrhoeal diseases, and pneumonia with TB and HIV/AIDS gaining increasing attention more recently." ( ) It is additionally reported that more than 40% of deaths during the acute emergency stage in camp situations result from diarrhoeal diseases and that 80% of these are among children less than two years of age.

Syllabus: Section 2: Annotated Bib (You will repeat this section three times, once for each reference). Search the pool of evidence. Look for evidence in critically appraised resources. Select three references that most clearly address the question you have posed. These must all be primary resources. List each reference at the top of a page. Immediately below the citation: (1) Identify the type of research design the reference is (i.e., systematic review or meta-analysis, evidence guideline, evidence summary, randomized case study, primary clinical research critique, review of literature, case report, case series, or a critical appraisal of an article or primary research). (one sentence). (2) Keep in mind levels of evidence and determine what level of evidence the resource is. To identify

The current review procedure consists of four steps. First, the WWC develops the review protocol. By creating the protocol, the reviewers define the parameters for the research, such as the type of intervention, database, population characteristics, research settings, etc. Following that, the WWC identifies relevant literature from all available databases, which enables the audience to find all relevant studies when they select one topic or intervention. Next, the WWC will screen and review the study to find whether the study meets the WWC standards, with or without reservation. There

Literature reviews are an examination of a study to determine its credibility or worthiness and information significance extracted from the existing research data (Wakefield, 2014). Literature reviews summaries, critically analyses, evaluates and clarifies the study authors’ ideas. The researched information provides the literature reviewer a summarize rational argument that defends and helps to explain the new research question, based on related policy and practice identified by

Question one of Module two asks us to look at what type of study a therapist should use when initially looking to answer a clinical question. The therapist should first look to the highest level of evidence, which is a systematic review of randomized controlled trials. Systematic reviews look at the research of several studies in order to draw a conclusion. A systematic review of randomized controlled trials is the highest level of evidence, because it is effective in reducing the potential bias and random errors of an individual study. While the advantages of a systematic review may be to reduce bias and random error, there are also a few disadvantages to this particular practice. For instance, the process of creating a systematic review is

A non-comunnable disease is a medical condition or disease that is non-infectious or non-transmissible. The disease that we will be focussing on today is Parkansins disease. I chose this disease, because it has no cure but people should learn about it so in case someone you know has symtoms of it you can act fast to get treatment. There are many local places you can donate money to, so they can try to find a cure for it. Treatment is not a cure for this disease, but its a good way to controll it better.

This systematic review had a few limitations. There was only one independent reviewer who performed searches, data extraction, and quality assessments. A second independent review was available for discussions during the entire review process. There were limited studies available to inclusion to the

Knols et al. (2005) included thirty-four randomized clinical trials and controlled clinical trials in their systematic review.

In achieving the best results for this literature review the CASP tools used were the qualitative check list and the systematic review list because the use of the Cochrane systematic review can make sense of a quantitative review when looking for literature. This tool is best used when looking at intervention and producing results in health-based human health care and evidence-based care in health care resources (Cochrane online, 2016). The researcher used other terms like Boolean to refer to a system that allows searching using the words AND, NOT and OR and in so doing managed to come up with the articles that inform this study.

The burden of NCDs was then looked at through the lens of global, regional and national perspective. This highlighted that globally the burden of NCDs was increasing rapidly and that developing regions such as Africa with LMICs experienced double the burden of NCDs. The issue of the increasing national burden of NCDs in sub-Sahara Africa was discussed further in terms of its projection to surpass communicable diseases by 2030 if intervention does not occur.
