This document provides guidance on writing abstracts and keywords for research papers. It discusses including a background, methods, results, and conclusion section in the abstract. The abstract should be a short, plain paragraph that lists the core findings and main points of the paper. It should stand alone without needing the full paper for context. Technical abbreviations should be defined and references and excessive details generally avoided. Keywords should represent major concepts and be selected from an approved medical index.
The document summarizes techniques for conducting effective searches in PubMed, including:
- Using Boolean operators, phrase searching with quotes, wildcard searches, and nesting search terms
- Exploring related tools like filters, custom filters, related citations, and search details
- Tips for maximizing search efficiency including using MeSH terms, reviewing, clinical queries, and mobile apps
This document discusses how to use Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms to search the biomedical literature more effectively. It explains that MeSH searches retrieve articles based on subjects rather than keywords. Using MeSH terms and subheadings can focus a search and reduce irrelevant results. The document provides an example comparing a keyword search for "aphthous ulcer drug treatment" that retrieves over 1000 citations to a more precise MeSH search using terms and subheadings that retrieves only 504 focused citations. It recommends considering a MeSH search when keyword searches are too broad or off-target, and explains when MeSH may not be helpful, such as for new topics.
This document outlines the key sections and components of a research paper, including the title, abstract, introduction, literature review, objectives, research methodology, data analysis, findings/results discussion, conclusion, and references. It provides guidance on writing each section, such as keeping the title concise but descriptive, including the purpose, methods, results and conclusion in the abstract, stating the research problem and definitions in the introduction, searching relevant background literature for the review, writing objectives using action verbs, describing the data collection and analysis methods, summarizing key findings, restating the topic and conclusions in the conclusion, and accurately citing references in-text and in a reference list.
Here are the answers to fill in the blanks:
- PubMed is a biomedical information resource
- OR
- the library catalogue
- MeSH terms
- Single Citation Matcher
- limits

Selection of the Problem pg 13One of the most difficult tasks co.docxbagotjesusa
Selection of the Problem pg 13
One of the most difficult tasks confronting the beginner is to select a researchable problem. More often than not, the newcomer has a proclivity to tackle an exotic issue, thus making the problem either too broad or too narrow in scope. Some factors that should be involved in the ultimate selection are listed here (Bailey, 1994):
1. Interest: The researcher should be interested in pursuing the problem area. The problem should be related to the background and career interests of the student, and in pursuing the problem the student should develop useful skills for the future.
2. Operability: The nature of the problem should be such that the researcher has both the resources and the time available to complete the subject.
3. Scope: While the research problem should not attempt to solve all the health dilemmas of the world, neither should it be so small as to negate the variables necessary for adequate results.
4. Theoretical and practical values: The research should contribute to the health field, perhaps through publication, and be of benefit to health practitioners.
5. Health paradigm: This is the school of thought or model employed by the researcher as discussed in an earlier chapter (Chapter 1).
6. Values of the researcher: The myth of value-free research is just that, a myth. The student of research should be aware that in addition to being unstable, values may prejudice the research effort to the degree that all objectivity is lost. Note that even the selection of a problem is value-laden.
7. Research methodology: Every researcher has a philosophy of research that affects procedure. Thus, the student must be certain that hypotheses are well written and that appropriate criteria are used to interpret the data to reach conclusions.
8. Reactivity: The method of data collection should be scrutinized for reactivity. That is, a reactive technique brings about a reaction on the part of those being studied in a way that affects that data. The reactive effect is commonly labeled the “Hawthorne effect” from the study of the Hawthorne Plant of the Western Electric Company in Chicago, where it was found that worker productivity increased simply because the personnel were being observed.
9. Unit of analysis: In health research, the unit of analysis may be an individual (such as the health habits of a single anorexic patient) or an entire population (patterns among the hospital anorexic population). The researcher must ascertain which is most appropriate and whether resources are available to collect data.
10. Time frame: This is particularly important to the student because only a limited amount of time is usually available. In a cross-sectional study aparticular population is involved at a single point in time; in a longitudinal time frame, data are gathered over an extended period of time (such as months or years).
11. Budget: To ensure that your proposal is feasible, write up a budget for expensive items. These items m.

Unit 7: Heredity, Structure and Function - Discussion
Mutations are changes that occur within the genes of an organism. Sometimes these mutations impact a single gene, while other mutations impact the number or structure of entire chromosomes. Because many mutations change just one tiny piece of information in one single piece of DNA, they usually do not cause any problems. For example, imagine if someone sent you a long e-mail and accidentally misspelled the word "friend" as "freind." You would still understand the e-mail and would probably still even catch the original meaning - this is a good analogy for what happens with a point mutation, where just one part of a gene is changed.
However, sometimes a single mistake can make a big difference. Imagine if, while composing a long e-mail, you accidentally select and delete an entire paragraph, or perhaps auto-correct changes a critical word. You can imagine (and perhaps have even experienced) how such a mistake might cause great confusion and miscommunication.
Many genetic disorders are caused by changes to a single gene in the form of a point mutation or due to a chromosomal abnormality like a chromosome disorder. Sometimes these mutations are passed from one generation to the next, just like other harmless traits like eye color and blood type. These mutations may cause specific disorders, or they may predispose a person to a common disease like cancer or heart disease.

1) Blinding in clinical trials refers to keeping trial participants, investigators, and assessors unaware of treatment assignments to prevent bias.
2) Potential benefits of blinding include less psychological or physical bias in participants, better compliance, and less bias in outcome assessments.
3) Types of blinding include non-blinded (where all know assignments), single-blinded (one group remains unaware), and double-blinded (participants, investigators, and assessors remain unaware). Placebos are often used to maintain blinding.

2. Functions: Titles as content sign posts
At the final stage: The title selected forms
important part of your communication
• with your readers,
• the editor and referees and
• with the members of your discipline.
3. Good title
• Clearly identify the field of research,
• Indicate the ‘‘story’’ the results tell,
• Raise questions about the research
in the mind of the reader.
4. • Look at the following titles and list the information about the research
and its results you can deduce from the titles.
• What questions might you, as a reader, expect to answer by reading the
article?
- Title A: Glargine Insulin Use Versus Continuous Regular Insulin in
Diabetic Surgical Non-critically Ill Patients Receiving Parenteral
Nutrition: Randomized Controlled Study.
• Information:
• Questions:
- Title B: Routine ureteric stenting before cytoreductive surgery plus
hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in managing peritoneal
carcinomatosis from gynecologic malignancies: a single-center
experience.
• Information:
• Questions:
- Title C: Ultrasound and intrauterine adhesions: a novel structured
approach to diagnosis and management.
• Information:
• Questions:
5. Title: Writing strategies
• Strategy 1: Provide as much relevant
information as possible, but be concise
• Strategy 2: Use keywords prominently
• Strategy 3: Choose strategically: noun phrase,
statement, or question?
• Strategy 4: Avoid ambiguity in noun phrases
6. Strategy 1: Provide as much relevant information as
possible, but be concise.
• The purpose of a title is to attract busy
readers in your particular target audience, so
that they will want to access and read the
whole document.
• The more revealing title is, the more easily
potential readers judge how relevant your
paper is to their interests.
7. Strategy 2: Use keywords prominently
• Words (keywords) capture the attention of
readers.
• Ensure that your title is picked up efficiently
by the literature-scanning services.
• Place the most important word(s) in your
title in the position of power: the beginning
8. Examples:
- Effects of Acetaminophen on cytochrome c redox cycling in
lipid peroxidation.
- Acetaminophen inhibits cytochrome c redox cycling
induced lipid peroxidation.
Use a colon (:) or a dash (–) to separate the first, keyword-
containing part of the title from a second, explanatory section.
Effective examples:
- Physical activity and cancer prevention: awareness and
meeting the recommendations among adult Saudis.
- Mobile teledermatology--patient satisfaction, diagnostic
and management concordance, and factors affecting
patient refusal to participate in Saudi Arabia.
9. Strategy 3: Choose strategically: noun phrase,
statement, or question?
• The traditional way to write titles and headings is
as a noun phrase: a number of words clustered
around one important ‘‘head’’ noun.
Examples:
• Management of infection and risk of Zika virus.
• Pattern of refractive errors among primary school children.
• Pattern of Psychiatric disorders in older patients attending an Arab
tertiary facility.
• Diversity and invasibility of southern Appalachian plant communities
• Food expenditure patterns in urban and rural Indonesia.
• Evidence of involvement of proteinaceous toxins in human illnesses
10. Tips
• Several of these titles are very effective:
brief, informative, and with keywords
placed near the front, but not explicit
enough.
• Rewriting this title as a statement could
overcome these difficulties.
(A statement is a sentence with a subject and
a verb, and give more explicit information
about the results of the study.)
11. Title into statement
- Access to care for children and young
people diagnosed with localized
scleroderma or juvenile SSc in the UK.
- FoxM1 and its association with matrix
metalloproteinases (MMP) signaling pathway
in papillary thyroid carcinoma.
12. 1- Statement titles are only suitable for papers
that address a specific question and present a
non-complex answer, a good option to replace titles
that begin with vague terms such as ‘‘The effects
of...’’. For example:
• Effects of added calcium on salinity tolerance of
tomato
• Calcium addition improves salinity tolerance of tomato
13. 2- When there is no simple answer to be
presented, it can be effective to write a title as
a question, e.g.:
• How do public health safeguards in
Indian patent law affect pharmaceutical
patenting in practice?
3- Check whether the journal has specific
conventions or recommendations about the
form of titles before you decide which form to
use.
14. • it can be useful to develop a list of possible
titles as you draft your manuscripts, and
choose the most effective one for the target
audience and the paper’s key message right
at the end of the writing process.
15. Strategy 4: Avoid ambiguity in noun phrases
• String of nouns and adjectives together, problems of
ambiguity: more than one possible meaning.
Examples.
1- The noun phrase germination conditions = conditions for germination
2- Application rate only mean the rate of application. (no Ambiguity)
3- Enzymatic activity suppression =either suppression of enzymatic activity or
suppression by enzymatic activity and is therefore ambiguous.
• Restrict these noun phrases to a maximum of three words, If
they grow longer, rewrite them by inserting the prepositions
that clarify the meaning (e.g. of, by, for).
soybean seedling growth suppression / suppression of soybean
seedling growth
16. • Generation of a monoclonal antibody
that recognizes the amino-terminal
decapeptide of the B-subunit of
Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin.
A new probe for studying toxin assembly
intermediates.
17. • N.B. When nouns are used as adjectives in
extended noun phrases, they are always
used in the singular.
• food for dogs ! dog food
18. • Is the title a noun phrase, a sentence, or a
question?
• How many words are used in the title?
• What is the first idea in the title?
• Why do you think this idea has been placed
first?
Evaluating a title
19. • Acetylation of prostaglandin H2 synthases by
aspirin is inhibited by redox cycling of the
peroxidase.
• Increasing the elution of vancomycin from high-
dose antibiotic-loaded bone cement: a novel
preparation technique.
• The effects of different mixing speeds on the
elution and strength of high-dose antibiotic-
loaded bone cement created with the hand-
mixed technique.
