dc.description.abstract | Objectives: The Global Emergency Medicine Literature Review (GEMLR) conducts an annual search of published and unpublished articles relevant to global emergency medicine (EM) to identify, review, and disseminate the most important research in this field to a wide audience of academics and practitioners. Methods: This year, 7,924 articles written in seven languages were identified by our search. These articles were divided up among 20 reviewers for initial screening based on their relevance to the field of global EM. An additional two reviewers searched the grey literature. A total of 206 articles were deemed appropriate by at least one reviewer and approved by their editor for formal scoring of their overall quality and importance. Results: Of the 206 articles that met our predetermined inclusion criteria, 24 articles received scores of 17 or higher and were selected for formal summary and critique. Interrater reliability for our scoring system was good with an interclass correlation coefficient of 0.628 (95% confidence interval = 0.51 to 0.72). Conclusions: Compared to previous reviews, there was a significant increase in the number of articles that were devoted to emergency care in resource‐limited settings, with fewer articles related to disaster and humanitarian response. The majority of articles that met our selection criteria were reviews that examined the efficacy of particular treatment regimens for diseases that are primarily seen in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Resumen Objetivos: La Global Emergency Medicine Literature Review lleva a cabo una búsqueda anual de los artículos más relevantes publicados y no publicados sobre la medicina de urgencias y emergencias (MUE) con el fin de identificar, revisar y distribuir las investigaciones más importantes en esta área a una amplia audiencia de académicos y médicos. Métodos: En 2011, se iidentificaron inicialmente 7.924 artículos escritos en 7 idiomas distintos. Estos artículos se dividieron entre 20 revisores para un despistaje inicial en base a su relevancia en el campo de la MUE global. Dos revisores adicionales realizaron una búsqueda de la literatura gris. Un total de 206 artículos se consideraron apropiados por al menos un revisor y aprobados por su editor para una puntuación formal de su calidad e importancia global. Resultados: De los 206 artículos que cumplieron los criterios de inclusión predeterminados, 24 artículos recibieron 17 o más puntos y se seleccionaron para el resumen formal y la crítica. La concordancia interevaluador para el sistema de puntuación fue buena con un coeficiente de correlación interclase de 0,628 (IC 95% = 0,51 a 0,72). Conclusiones: En comparación con revisiones previas, hubo un incremento significativo en el número de artículos que están relacionados con la atención urgente en escenarios de recursos limitados, con menos artículos relacionados con las catástrofes y la respuesta humanitaria. La mayoría de los artículos que cumplieron los criterios de inclusión fueron revisiones que evaluaron la eficacia de pautas de tratamiento particulares para enfermedades que son vistas principalmente en países con ingresos moderados y bajos. | en_US |
