Scientific Information Management and Literature-Based Evaluations for the NTP - Support for the Development of Novel Tools for Scientific Information Management/Literature-based Evaluations

新工具/方法的开发是DNTPs科学信息管理的一个关键组成部分，用于基于文献的评价相关活动，由于需要审查的文献数量、复杂的设计和文献中研究报告的不同水平，以及准备高质量文本和图形的需要，这些活动是必要的。新工具开发项目涉及在评估研究一致性和发表偏倚时评估研究设计变化影响的方法开发；开发能够提高效率的自动化流程；链接用于数据集比较的多个受控词汇和与环境健康词汇相关的其他过程的工具；开发工具来促进网络出版。

New tool/method development is a critical component of DNTPs scientific information management for literature-based evaluation-related activities, necessitated by the volume of literature to review, complex designs and varying level of reporting of research studies in the literature, and the need to prepare high quality text and graphics necessitate these activities. New tool development projects have involved development of methods to assess impact of variations in study design when assessing consistency across studies and publication bias; development of automated processes that can increase efficiency; a tool for linking multiple controlled vocabularies for dataset comparison and other processes related to environmental health vocabulary; and development of tools to facilitate web-publishing.
