literature searchquality improvementresearchThe framework for the PICO (population, intervention, comparison intervention, outcome) question was developed for use in the field of medicine to help determine the best treatment or intervention for a patient. However, use of the PICO question often fails ...
A general mechanistic framework is proposed to account for variation in the predatory impact of woodpeckers on the bark beetle community living on spruce, based on available information. It emphasises interrelations between the multi-scale heterogeneity of forest habitat as driven by succession and ...
When devising a search strategy, a search tool is used as an organising framework to list terms by the main concepts in the search question, especially in teams where it is not possible to have an experienced information specialist as a member of the review team. The PICO tool focuses on ...
Microalgae are promising biocatalysts for applications in sustainable fuel, food, and chemical production. Here, we describe culture collection screening, down-selection, and development of a high-productivity, halophilic, thermotolerant microalga,Picochlorum renovo. This microalga displays a rapid growth r...
Asking Structured, Answerable Clinical Questions Using the Population, Intervention/Comparator, Outcome (PICO) FrameworkDo you remember being told during your training that you should use something called "PICO," but you can't remember what it means? You're not alone. "PICO" stands for Population...
The completeness and accuracy of the chatbot-provided evidence were analyzed through a comparison with the literature (PubMed). Results: Bing Chat rapidly identified the elements of the PICO framework and provided a concise answer on the basis of the literature....
This framework is designed to support a sizeable nano-satellite constellation composed of dynamic FSO links between multiple satellites and ground stations. In order to optimize the performance and the cost-effectiveness of such FSO constellation, each unit should be designed for mass production. In ...
