概括
很少有口腔健康元分析使用哈顿和纳普 (HK) 校正或预测间隔 (PI). 这些方法提高了准确性,因为结果在应用时发生了显著的变化,影响了临床实践.
科学领域:
- 口腔健康研究研究 口腔健康研究
- 生物统计学 生物统计学
- 基于证据的牙科.
背景情况:
- 只有少数研究的元分析往往对异质性的估计很差.
- 哈通和纳普 (HK) 校正和预测间隔 (PI) 解决了对异质性估计和未来试验效应大小的不确定性.
研究的目的:
- 评估口腔健康元分析中 HK 校正报告的使用情况.
- 将已公布的结果与使用八个异质性估计器和HK调整计算的结果以及PI进行比较.
主要方法:
- 分析了2021-2023年在牙科期刊上的系统评论 (SRs).
- 用八个异质性估计器重新分析了元分析,使用和不使用HK校正,并计算了PI.
主要成果:
- 只有3/292的元分析使用了HK调整;12/292报告了PI.
- 在使用不同的异质性估计器时,7.45%-16.59%的结果的统计意义发生了变化.
- 超过60%的显著元分析可能会根据PI在未来发生变化,其中超过40%包括相反的影响.
结论:
- 在元分析中,聚合估计的精度和意义对HK校正,异质性估计器和PI敏感.
- 对元分析估计的不确定性需要仔细考虑,特别是对少数或可变的研究.
- 误解结果可能导致不有效的临床干预.

Teeth
363
The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin...

Longitudinal Research

Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...
