OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to review highly cited articles that focus on non-publication of studies, and to develop a consistent and comprehensive approach to defining (non-) dissemination of research findings. SETTING: We performed a scoping review of definitions of the term 'publication bias' in highly cited publications. PARTICIPANTS: Ideas and experiences of a core group of authors were collected in a draft document, which was complemented by the findings from our literature search. INTERVENTIONS: The draft document including findings from the literature search was circulated to an international group of experts and revised until no additional ideas emerged and consensus was reached. PRIMARY OUTCOMES: We propose a new approach to the comprehensive conceptualisation of (non-) dissemination of research. SECONDARY OUTCOMES: Our 'What, Who and Why?' approach includes issues that need to be considered when disseminating research findings (What?), the different players who should assume responsibility during the various stages of conducting a clinical trial and disseminating clinical trial documents (Who?), and motivations that might lead the various players to disseminate findings selectively, thereby introducing bias in the dissemination process (Why?). CONCLUSIONS: Our comprehensive framework of (non-) dissemination of research findings, based on the results of a scoping literature search and expert consensus will facilitate the development of future policies and guidelines regarding the multifaceted issue of selective publication, historically referred to as 'publication bias'.

Dans le contexte des soins intensifs pédiatriques, la douleur est une préoccupation majeure et quotidienne pour l'équipe soignante. Les patients sont vulnérables de par leur condition et les multiples stimulations douloureuses auxquelles ils sont exposés. En dépit des données probantes démontrant l'importance d'une évaluation de la douleur, le traitement de celle-ci reste non optimal dans cette population vulnérable. Une douleur inadéquatement traitée peut causer de nombreuses complications à moyen et à long terme. L'évaluation de la douleur chez le patient ventilé et non communicant représente un défi important, rendu complexe par l'utilisation concomitante de médicaments sédatifs et analgésiques qui peuvent masquer ou altérer les comportements de la douleur. Il existe des outils d'évaluation adaptés à cette population vulnérable, mais l'interprétation des scores reste difficile. L'évaluation de la douleur demande aux infirmières des connaissances et compétences élevées à même d'être mobilisées lors d'un processus complexe lié au raisonnement clinique. Le but de cette étude descriptive et observationnelle est de déterminer les indicateurs utilisés par les infirmières expertes des soins intensifs de pédiatrie lors de l'évaluation de la douleur chez le patient ventilé et non communicant, sous analgésie et sédation. Un échantillon de convenance de dix infirmières expertes travaillant dans une unité de soins intensifs pédiatriques d'un hôpital universitaire de Suisse romande a participé à cette étude. Les données ont été récoltées par l'enregistrement de la verbalisation du raisonnement clinique au lit du patient, complété par une observation non participante et un entretien semi-structuré. Le développement d'un cadre théorique constitué d'un modèle de raisonnement clinique expert et d'une modélisation du décodage de la douleur a permis de réaliser une analyse de contenu des enregistrements. Les résultats montrent une utilisation importante des indicateurs physiologiques, en lien avec la stabilité clinique du patient qui est un critère essentiel pour la prise de décision lors de la gestion de la douleur. La difficulté à discriminer l'agitation résultant de la douleur ou d'autres causes est également omniprésente. Les expertes anticipent et préviennent la survenue de la douleur en s'appuyant sur leurs connaissances et les situations de patient déjà rencontrées. Le contexte clinique influence de manière prépondérante le raisonnement clinique et les indicateurs utilisés lors de l'évaluation et la gestion de la douleur. Celle-ci doit être évaluée de manière combinée avec la stabilité clinique du patient et son niveau de sédation. De futures recherches sont nécessaires pour confirmer ces résultats réalisés avec un échantillon de petite taille et un devis observationnel.

This study focuses to the intersection of three sets of activities in a company: expert work, development work and supply chain management, SCM. Experts and expert work represent a set of individuals whose efficiency and impact this study is intended to improve, while development work defines the set of organizational activities to focus on. SCM as an expertise area acts as the platform on which this study is built. The study has two aims. Firstly, it aims to derive a model helping an SCM expert to increase the effectiveness of expert work in development tasks by understanding the encountered organizational situations and processes better, reflecting his/her past and future actions to organizational processes and selecting and adjusting the processes and contents of his/her work accordingly. Secondly, it aims to develop applicable approaches and methods to understand, evaluate and manage the organizational processes and situations in development work. The integrative model on approaches and methods to improve the effectiveness of development processes is split to two aggregate dimensions: technical performance of the developed solution and consumption of resources of the development process. Six potential approaches and methods aiming at helping in the management of organizational dimensions are presented in enclosed publications. The approaches focus on three subtasks of development work: decision making, implementation and change, and knowledge accumulation. The approaches and methods have been tested in case studies representing typical development processes in the area of supply chain management. As a result, four suggestions are presented. Firstly, SCM experts are advised to consider the SCM development work to be consisting of development processes. Secondly, inside these processes they should identify and evaluate the risk of difficult decision-making related to organizational factors. Thirdly, they are prompted for an active role in implementation and change, supporting the implementation through whole process. Finally, the development should be seen in a holistic view, taking into account the stage of knowledge and organizational issues related to it, and adopt a knowledge development strategy.

De vegades és difícil distingir els conceptes d’individu amb talent i individu expert. Sens dubte, això és degut a que els individus que assoleixen l’èxit en l’esport, la música, el teatre, la literatura, etc. mostren ambdues condicions: una si es vol innata, el talent, i una altra adquirida, la de ser expert. També, de vegades, desitjaríem que els talents treballessin per a ser experts, aspecte que els elevaria a un grau superior d’excel·lència. En el present article es realitza una posada al dia d’ambdós conceptes amb l’objectiu d’establir una base adequada sobre la que sostenir amb més solidesa les decisions i actuacions del formador. També es presenten algunes nocions sobre el seguiment i control dels nois que gaudeixen en les canteres esportives sempre amb l’orientació bàsica de formar individus complerts amb un rendiment òptim.

In this paper a computer program to model and support product design is presented. The product is represented through a hierarchical structure that allows the user to navigate across the product’s components, and it aims at facilitating each step of the detail design process. A graphical interface was also developed, which shows visually to the user the contents of the product structure. Features are used as building blocks for the parts that compose the product, and object-oriented methodology was used as a means to implement the product structure. Finally, an expert system was also implemented, whose knowledge base rules help the user design a product that meets design and manufacturing requirements.

In view of the importance of anticipating the occurrence of critical situations in medicine, we propose the use of a fuzzy expert system to predict the need for advanced neonatal resuscitation efforts in the delivery room. This system relates the maternal medical, obstetric and neonatal characteristics to the clinical conditions of the newborn, providing a risk measurement of need of advanced neonatal resuscitation measures. It is structured as a fuzzy composition developed on the basis of the subjective perception of danger of nine neonatologists facing 61 antenatal and intrapartum clinical situations which provide a degree of association with the risk of occurrence of perinatal asphyxia. The resulting relational matrix describes the association between clinical factors and risk of perinatal asphyxia. Analyzing the inputs of the presence or absence of all 61 clinical factors, the system returns the rate of risk of perinatal asphyxia as output. A prospectively collected series of 304 cases of perinatal care was analyzed to ascertain system performance. The fuzzy expert system presented a sensitivity of 76.5% and specificity of 94.8% in the identification of the need for advanced neonatal resuscitation measures, considering a cut-off value of 5 on a scale ranging from 0 to 10. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.93. The identification of risk situations plays an important role in the planning of health care. These preliminary results encourage us to develop further studies and to refine this model, which is intended to implement an auxiliary system able to help health care staff to make decisions in perinatal care.
