New - PromotingResearch.com

http://www.promotingresearch.com/

The Idea and Purpose

Promotingresearch.com is a forum
for promoting research that is
good, original, useful and ethically
sound.

It would be a unique platform for
educating young
scientists/researchers
about
important aspects of research and how to
go about it.

Often people who are new to the field face
problems on how and where to begin with.
This forum would act as a catalyst in
providing useful reviews on topics
covering various aspects of research.

In addition, we are launching
two new
open access journals (10/90
Journal) and the (
10/90 Student
Journal). The articles would be made
available from the day they get accepted.
It would be unique in having an open-peer
review system, in which the various
registered users/fellow students would
provide reviews followed by an
evaluation by experts in the field.

It would feature compositions, artwork,
research work, research/elective
experiences and upcoming conferences.

We have also tried to present a collection
of recommended readings concerning
various important topics concerning
research and health related issues.

The best part is that all readers and
members would also be acting as useful
contributors through writing for the
journals, expressing their opinions
through letters, engaging in
discussions/blogs and even promoting
their own ongoing research/ideas and
collaborating with others.

We hope that you benefit from this
endeavor of ours.
Good Wishes,
The Editor.

Shorter doctor hours don't affect U.S. deaths
Tue Sep 4, 4:14 PM ET
Death rates among elderly U.S. patients have shown little change since the long hours worked by doctors in training were cut in 2003 under a major effort to reduce hospital errors, a study said on Tuesday.
Since mid-2003, resident physicians in U.S. hospitals have been allowed to work no more than 80 hours a week, with limits on consecutive days worked and on-call duties plus requirements for rest periods between shifts, according to the study in this week's Journal of the American Medical Association.
The study examined records from 2001 to 2005 for more than 8 million patients receiving Medicare, the government health insurance program for those 65 and older, and found statistically insignificant increases in death rates after the limits were put in place.
"The results of this study suggest that after two years (the policy) has not been associated with a significant positive or negative change in mortality among Medicare patients," wrote Dr. Kevin Volpp of the Philadelphia Veterans Affairs Medical Center.
An earlier study found reducing resident physicians' hours has cut the rate of medical mistakes, but experts speculate patient care can suffer if doctors adopt a "shift-work" mentality and lose the continuity of care, wrote David Meltzer and Vineet Arora of the University of Chicago in an accompanying editorial.
The consequences of the change in duty hours needed a comprehensive analysis both in terms of patient care and the cost to hospitals, they wrote. Many institutions have boosted staffing levels and pushed tasks formerly performed by residents onto doctors and other employees.
