Evidence-based dentistry is an approach that requires integrating systematic assessments of scientific evidence about a patient's oral and medical condition with the dentist's expertise and the patient's needs. It follows five steps - asking a question, acquiring evidence, appraising the evidence, analyzing it, and applying it to patient care. Higher levels of evidence come from systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and randomized controlled trials, while lower levels include retrospective cohort studies and case-control studies. The goal is to use the strongest available scientific evidence to guide clinical decision making.
Evidence- based periodontology is a bridge from all the available literature to clinical practice. It is a tool which can be used for decision making from available evidence during clinical practice.It should be scientifically sound and patient focussed.
The document discusses evidence-based periodontology. It defines evidence-based practice and outlines the stages in evidence-based practice, including framing clinical questions and searching for evidence through systematic reviews.

This document discusses several studies on the effects of oral care and dysphagia screenings for patients post-stroke. It finds that early identification of dysphagia through screenings can greatly reduce the risk of aspiration pneumonia. Nurse-led dysphagia screenings using a standardized tool were found to correctly identify swallowing difficulties. However, more research is needed on the effects of screenings on length of hospital stay and time to speech therapy assessment. The document also discusses the need for staff training and protocols for proper oral care post-stroke to maintain oral health and reduce pneumonia risk. A study in Japan found that while most hospitals implement oral care, only 30% of nurses receive training, indicating a need

The document summarizes transcription in eukaryotes. It discusses that eukaryotes have multiple RNA polymerases that transcribe different RNA molecules. It describes the structure of eukaryotic genes including exons, introns, the 5' UTR and 3' UTR. The transcription process involves RNA polymerase binding to promoters and assembling with transcription factors to form the preinitiation complex. The complex melts the promoter DNA and initiates transcription. The pre-mRNA undergoes 5' capping, 3' polyadenylation, and intron splicing to become a mature mRNA, unlike prokaryotes where transcription and translation are coupled.
This document discusses transcription in prokaryotes. It begins by outlining the aims of understanding the transcription process, gene structure, promoter and terminator structures, and how transcription is terminated. The transcription process involves three steps - initiation, elongation, and termination. Initiation occurs at the promoter region, which contains -10 and -35 boxes. Elongation involves RNA polymerase moving along the DNA and synthesizing RNA. Termination can occur via Rho-independent terminators that form hairpin loops, or Rho-dependent terminators involving the Rho protein. The gene structure contains a promoter region, RNA coding sequence, and terminator region.
This document discusses many modern dental technologies that can help detect and treat dental problems earlier and more efficiently. It provides examples of technologies such as air abrasion for cavity treatment, bone replacement options, CAD/CAM for same-day crowns and fillings, caries detection solutions, dental cameras and scans, lasers, microscopes and more. These advances aim to make dental treatment less painful and more effective.
The document provides a history of dentistry from ancient times to modern day. It discusses key figures like Hippocrates who was considered the father of medicine and established ethical guidelines. It outlines advancements made by various early civilizations in practices like fillings. The document then focuses on developments in the United States including the founding of the first dental college and contributions of figures like GV Black who helped standardize practices. It notes milestones like the first woman to graduate dental school and the establishment of dental hygiene as a profession.
This document discusses various intraoral radiographic techniques including bitewing, occlusal, and periapical projections. It provides details on film size and placement, angulation of the central x-ray beam, and uses of each technique. Bitewing projections show crowns and bone between teeth and are used to detect interproximal caries. Occlusal projections cover a larger area and are used to locate impacted teeth or lesions. The document also discusses localization techniques like tube shift and parallax to determine an object's three-dimensional position.
This document discusses dental pharmacology. It begins by defining pharmacology as the study of drugs and their interactions with living systems. It then discusses the history and development of pharmacology. The rest of the document covers various topics in dental pharmacology including local anesthetics, vasoconstrictors, antiseptics, and sources of drugs. It provides details on specific drugs used in dentistry as well as their mechanisms of action, uses, and important considerations.
Periapical, bitewing, and occlusal radiographs provide different views for assessing teeth and surrounding structures. Periapical views show crowns, roots, and bone while bitewings show interproximal areas and the alveolar crest. Occlusals display large segments of dental arches. Each view has advantages like accuracy but also disadvantages like patient discomfort. Proper technique like receptor placement and central ray angulation are needed to minimize distortion. Managing pediatric patients and those prone to gagging requires relaxation, explanation, and distraction techniques.

· 1-ProQuest Nursing & Allied Health Source this source offers shandicollingwood
· 1-ProQuest Nursing & Allied Health Source: this source offers a wide range of materials in nursing, allied health, alternative and complementary medicine, and the likes. It has over 860 titles in full text and over 12,000 full-text dissertations indicative of arduous nursing scholarships. Additionally, it gives access to online reference books, training tools, and evidence-based nursing material from The Joana Briggs Institute. It’s a good source for training videos and cultural reports that helps with creating a better understanding of patient care.
· CINAHL Complete is one of the most reliable databases for nursing. It offers research tools and access to nursing and allied journals. It is comprised of more than 1300 journal titles and covers over fifty specialties in nursing. Also, it offers continuing education modules, research instruments, and evidence-based care sheets.
I believe these databases will help me find the best research articles for my EBP proposal.
2-The GCU Library offers very many sources and databases of information from which nurses can be able to get nursing information. The university has databases that they get peer reviewed journal articles. These databases include the CINAHL Complete and Cochrane Library (Grand Canyon University, n.d.). These two databases are well known for having scholarly articles and journals that are very good in evidence based practice. These databases are specifically for nursing and health sciences. These databases are very good sources of information and evidence based practice papers than other sources for certain reasons. One is that they guarantee scholarly articles that are peer reviewed. The sources only provide materials and articles that have been peer reviewed. These means that the information that they provide to the reader is credible and can be used in the practice. Peer reviewed scholarly articles show that the information in the journal has been reviewed by other experts in the field and therefore the information can be used in a research or in a hospital setting.
Another reason as to why these databases are better is that they are more specific to subject and topic. This means that no time is wasted in search of information that is to be used in the research or practice. At times, the researcher has to go very many volumes of journals so as to be able to find some information (Dvorkin & Sylvester, 2018). However, these databases are specific in that they provide information on certain disciplines of nursing and health sciences. This means that they are more specific to subject. Another advantage of using these sources is that they offer a wide range of options. They have very many articles from which a nurse can choose from and they can get credible information from any of them. This means that not only is the source credible it is also reliable and one can depend fully on it.

Observational Study DesignsA clinical pediatric nurse has .docxpoulterbarbara
A pediatric nurse noticed a rise in childhood cancer diagnoses among Hispanic patients. The nurse found research linking parental smoking to childhood cancer and wondered if this could explain the rise. This type of suspected association between an exposure (risk factor) and outcome can be evaluated using observational study designs, including cohort, case-control, and cross-sectional studies.

Therapeutic guidelines are clinical practice guidelines that focus on treatment recommendations. They are developed by healthcare providers through a systematic process involving a literature review, obtaining expert opinions, developing recommendations, and assessing quality of evidence. Therapeutic guidelines provide standardized treatment protocols to improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs. They are published in medical databases, websites of organizations like the American Heart Association, and government sources.

As a nursing practitioner, the major roles include the assessment of the needs of the patients. A nursing practitioner also orders and interprets test from laboratories, they do illness and disease diagnosis, medication prescription and formulate plans for treatment. There are a number of challenges that face the nurse in their field of practices. This paper will focus to discuss the hazards in the workspace of these practitioners. It will also seek to find a way of solving these challenge using innovative means.
The Problem of Interest
Hazard in The Nursing Field.
The nursing field of practice is one of the most dangerous places of working as one does work in a delicate environment where one is in the risks of being infected or even injuring oneself. Nurses are faced with a number of risks in daily job activities. Some of these hazards include injuries, flu germs, hand washing –related dermatitis and pathogens that are based in the blood among others.
According to the report produced by OSHA, about 5.6 million of 12.2 million workers are under the risk of being exposed to blood borne pathogens. This is a big number of health workers under the risk meaning that soon there will be a shortage of health nursing or health workers in general. Moreover, the rates of risks are higher in the health care industry than any other industries. This industry has registered around 35000 injuries covering different parts of the body. These range from the shoulders, hands, feet, and back. These statistics are according to the Bureau Labor Statistics (Gooch, 2015).
Apart from the acute injuries discussed, they also suffer harm exposed on their hands. From a recent study carried out in the University of Manchester, the health workers that follow protocols are 4.5 times exposed to skin damage risks. The report also reported up to 25 percent of cases of irritant contact dermatitis.
These individuals also get exposed to infectious diseases in their areas of practice. One of the most commonly contacted infection is Hepatitis B (HBV). This is infection can be contacted via blood contact, feces, saliva, and semen. This instrument of spreading the infection is in contact with the patient and also the needles (Gooch, 2015). Nursing practitioners also risk exposure to toxic substances in the clinical environment. Radiation is another risk that comes majorly from the ionizing radiation. Complications associated with radiation include skin cancer, leukemia, and cancer among others. One comes to contact with this radiation in the instances of performing x-ray scans. Another challenge that faces nursing.

The document summarizes an agenda and presentations for a Cochrane Oral Health Group Editors' and Clinical Advisors' meeting that covered topics such as the role of editors, prioritizing review topics, introducing the MECIR standards, screening reviews for quality, and working through an example flossing review to discuss the abstract, risk of bias assessment, outcomes, summary of findings, and consistency across reviews. The National Institute for Health Research is the largest funder of the Cochrane Oral Health Group.
This document provides an overview of evidence-based periodontology. It defines evidence-based periodontology as the application of evidence-based healthcare to the field of periodontology. The document discusses the development of evidence-based periodontology and its key components, advantages over traditional periodontology, and terminology used in evidence-based approaches. It also addresses searching for evidence, levels of evidence, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and evidence-based decision making in periodontal therapy.
The document discusses denture stomatitis (DS), an inflammatory condition affecting the oral mucosa of individuals wearing complete or partial removable dental prostheses. It reports that DS prevalence varies widely between studies but can be as high as 75% in some populations. The document conducts a systematic review of eight studies on the association between partial removable dental prostheses (RDPs) and DS. The review finds that DS prevalence in partial RDP wearers ranges from 1.1% to 36.7% across the studies. Several factors are proposed as potential risks for DS, but the evidence is inconsistent. The review concludes that there is some evidence linking DS to partial RDP use, but higher quality studies are needed to establish causality.
Difference between cohort, cross sectional and case control study - Scientifi...Pubrica
This document compares and contrasts four types of observational studies: cross-sectional studies, cohort studies, retrospective cohort studies, and case-control studies. Cross-sectional studies determine disease prevalence at a single point in time. Cohort studies compare exposed and non-exposed groups over time. Retrospective cohort studies use existing data to follow groups retrospectively. Case-control studies compare people with a disease to controls without the disease.

This document discusses systematic reviews and their usefulness for busy dental practitioners. It introduces the problem of information overload for clinicians trying to stay up to date. Systematic reviews provide a solution by synthesizing large amounts of research into concise summaries. The key features that make systematic reviews reliable include having a clearly defined clinical question, conducting a comprehensive search for relevant studies, using explicit criteria to include/exclude studies, assessing study validity, analyzing inconsistencies, appropriately combining findings, and conclusions supported by evidence. Systematic reviews offer clinicians summaries of the best available evidence to inform patient care decisions.
This document provides an overview of developments in clinical trial design, with a focus on adaptive designs. It discusses how adaptive designs allow trials to be modified based on accumulating data to make trials more efficient. The number of adaptive design trials has been growing annually by an average of 11.5%. Various types of adaptive designs are described, including exploratory, confirmatory, seamless, and enrichment designs. Specific examples highlight how adaptive designs can help drop ineffective treatments earlier and identify more promising treatments. Regulatory progress on adaptive designs and remaining hurdles are also discussed.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
3. ADA Policy on Evidence-Based Dentistry
ADA defines the term “evidence-based dentistry” as
follows:
“Evidence-based dentistry is an approach to oral health care that
requires the judicious integration of systematic assessments of
clinically relevant scientific evidence, relating to the patient's oral
and medical condition and history, with the dentist's clinical
expertise and the patient's treatment needs and preferences.”
(Trans. 2001:462).
Available at: http://www.ada.org/1754.aspx.
4. ADA Policy on Evidence-Based Dentistry
“In adopting this definition for EBD, the ADA recognizes that
treatment recommendations should be determined for each
patient by his or her dentist, and that patient preferences should
be considered in all decisions. Dentist experience and other
circumstances, such as patients’ characteristics, should also be
considered in treatment planning. EBD does not provide a
“cookbook” that dentists must follow, nor does it establish a
standard of care. The EBD process must not be used to interfere
in the dentist/patient relationship, nor is it to be used as a costcontainment tool by third-party payers.”

Laboratory experiments
While test tube experiments are essential in all areas of

on the results.
Animal experiments
Some useful results have come from animal experiments,
and while these may indicate the usefulness of human trials,
clinicians can't use these articles.

Case reports
These are often memorable and can serve as a reminder
for diagnosis and treatment, but you can't base a practice on
small populations (1 patient) where bias may be present.

45. Article types useful for EBD (3)
Phase I trials
Usually conducted on small numbers of healthy volunteers to
look for adverse effects. These results aren't appropriate for
clinicians working with patients.
Phase II trials (Case Series)
Mostly these use small numbers of selected patients, or a series
of patients often without a control group to test the outcome of
an intervention. Results of Phase II Trials are not usually
considered sufficiently objective and rigorous enough to use in
clinical decisions.

46. Article types useful for EBD (4)
Phase III trials
Large long term trials on patients, usually with randomized
control, double or single blinding, control groups, placebos etc.
These trials can be used to make clinical decisions.
Phase IV trials
These are usually post marketing trials on very large numbers of
patients to gauge the long term safety and find rare adverse effects
of interventions. Useful for clinical decision making.

47. Article types useful for EBD (5)
Systematic Reviews
These are peer reviewed articles that bring together all the
objective studies on interventions for particular conditions.
Sometimes authors do this to compare interventions, and
sometimes to join study results to increase the size of the
population tested. If the original articles are not randomized
controlled trials, then the authors should explain why they are
used in the analysis and what adjustments were made in the
statistical analysis to include them. These are useful for clinical
decisions, often called the gold standard.

Cohort Studies
Patients with a particular condition are followed over time and
compared with a control group. Cohort studies aren't as reliable as
controlled trials but are useful in situations where it wouldn't be ethical
to run a randomised trial. Types of cohort studies include:
Longitudinal Studies where particular groups or individuals within a
cohort are studied.
Follow-up Studies study the effect of exposures, procedures, or
characteristics such as a disease.
Prospective Studies study the incidence or mortality in subgroups after
their selection.
Cohort studies can be used for making clinical decisions.

Clinical Practice Guidelines
Should be evidence based serial statements to assist in diagnosis
and treatment of particular conditions. Care should be taken to
ensure that these are NOT based only on expert opinion. Look
carefully at the evidence summary to ensure that the evidence is
both comprehensive and up to date. You'll also need to see if it's
possible to follow through with the guideline in your situation.

163. Trip is a clinical search engine designed to allow users to quickly
and easily find and use high-quality research evidence to support
their practice and/or care.
Trip has been online since 1997 and in that time has developed
into the internet’s premier source of evidence-based content.
Our motto is ‘Find evidence fast’ and this is something we aim to
deliver for every single search.
As well as research evidence we also allow clinicians to search
across other content types including images, videos, patient
information leaflets, educational courses and news.
