Moreover, by counting the number of web pages viewed from which the keywords were written, we can evaluate the efficiency of reviewing found web pages when using IE or ROS.
4 20 While the efficiency of reviewing medical records for monitoring and evaluating improvement interventions and for surveillance is very attractive to implementers, this should be weighed against the poor accuracy of this resource and may lead to suboptimal policy to the detriment of patients and the health system.
Strategies to protect reviewer time and increase the efficiency of the review process may increase the numbers of trained reviewers completing a systematic review.
Proposals to improve the performance of IRBs include increasing the efficiency of the review process and reducing the amount of time devoted to administrative tasks prior to board review [ 1].
Based on this theory of peer review, we argue that the recent proposal of an "as is" review policy combined with increased accountability of referees can be expected to result in a higher efficiency of peer review.
We must improve the efficiency of peer review and continue to perform checks that uncover conflicts of interest, identify financial disclosures, confirm author affiliations, and ensure compliance with international standards of animal and human testing.
To demonstrate the technical steps of a laparoscopic sacral colpopexy (LSC), demonstrate the efficiency of LSC, review the comparative LSC and robotic-assisted sacral colpopexy (RSC) literature, and challenge surgeons' conventional wisdom regarding RSC.
Through widespread uptake and support, the potential to improve the completeness and quality of trial protocols, as well as the efficiency of their review, can be fully realised.
Time to approval may be related to the quality and characteristics of submitted protocols, but may also reflect the efficiency of the review process.
The quality and the efficiency of peer review are crucial aspects to the success of a journal, and the ~50 distinguished international members of our Editorial Board (http://www.nature.com/psp/editors.html) play a pivotal role in this process.
