The Pathway to Evidence-Based Resources
Evidence-Based GuidelinesEvidence-based guidelines based on a systematic review of the research literature. The guidelines provide summaries of evidence and recommendations for practice from government agencies, professional organizations, and convening expert panels. Systematic ReviewsSystematic reviews and meta-analyses of the literature that use specific methods and criteria to locate, appraise, and synthesize the evidence from research studies. The reviews uncover the strengths and weaknesses of the evidence and identify gaps in current research. Pre-Formulated and Filtered Searches of Published StudiesSpecialized searches of PubMed/MEDLINE on specific public health topics or limited to studies that correspond to a specific research category. Best PracticesPublic health programs, interventions, and policies that have been evaluated, shown to be successful, and have the potential to be adapted and transformed by others working in the same field. |
