2018 Journal Impact Factor for Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews is 7.755⠀
The CDSR Journal Impact Factor is calculated by taking the total number of citations in a given year to all Cochrane Reviews published in the past 2 years and dividing that number by the total number of Reviews published in the past 2 years. It is a useful metric for measuring the strength of a journal by how often it its publications are cited in scholarly articles. ⠀
⠀
Cochrane’s Editor in Chief, Karla Soares-Weiser, commented: “I am delighted to see a rise in Impact Factor for the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. We are pleased to see a rise in total citations to now over 67 thousand and the five year impact factor is consistently strong. All of these data demonstrate the usage and impact of Cochrane reviews, and reflect enormous credit on our many thousands of contributors and groups.”
New Cochrane Review assesses evidence on different ways to reduce consumption of sugary drinks⠀
⠀
Consumption of sugary drinks is considered to be a key driver behind the global #obesity epidemic, and is linked with #toothdecay #diabetes and #heartdisease This new Cochrane Review summarizes evidence from research studies testing different ways of reducing consumption of sugary drinks at a population level.⠀
⠀
The review authors identified a number of measures which the available scientific evidence indicates reduces the amount of sugary drinks people drink. These measures included:⠀
⠀
➡️Labels that are easy to understand, such as ‘traffic-light’ labels, and labels that rate the healthiness of beverages with stars or numbers.⠀
➡️Limits to the availability of sugary drinks in schools.⠀
➡️ Price increases on sugary drinks in restaurants, stores and leisure centres.⠀
➡️ Children’s menus in chain restaurants which include healthier beverages instead of sugary drinks as the default.⠀
➡️ Promotion and better placement of healthier beverages in supermarkets.⠀
➡️Government food benefits (e.g. food stamps) which cannot be used to purchase sugary drinks.⠀
➡️ Community campaigns focused on supporting healthy beverage choices.⠀
➡️ Measures that improve the availability of low-calorie beverages at home, e.g. through home deliveries of bottled water and diet beverages.⠀

Cochran’s reviews are one of the highest forms of evidence to support various forms of medical treatments. These reviews involve combing through all available research and producing a general guideline based on the findings.

It was a fantastic time for Cochrane Rehabilitation @cochrane.rehabilitation at the World Confederation for Physical Therapy! ⠀

They hosted a Indaba session on 'how to find better evidence in our decision-making during the daily clinical practice: the Cochrane Rehabilitation’s experience.' During this session they showed their knowledge translation activities and ways they 'translate' Cochrane evidence into plain language. ⠀
⠀
Cochrane's 30 Under 30 member, Joel Pollet @joel_pollet did an oral presentation titled 'Tackling the methodological issues of evidence production in rehabilitation: the role of Cochrane Rehabilitation'. ⠀
⠀
Chiara Arenti presented a poster titled 'Tackling the methodological issues of evidence production in rehabilitation: the role of Cochrane Rehabilitation, which was linked to a recent publication in the European Journal of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine.⠀

David Tovey has been our Editor in Chief of the Cochrane Library for 10 years! ⠀
⠀
Here he shares his farewell message:⠀
⠀
"I want to express my gratitude to you all for your forbearance, support, challenge and friendship over these past 10 years. Believe me when I say that having the privilege of serving you all has been the highlight of my working life. Life has never been easy, but I have learned such a great deal from you, had experiences I couldn’t have imagined, and found myself stretched (in a good way) every day(...)⠀
⠀
I want to finish by repeating my debt to all those of you who toil at Cochrane’s coalface as authors, editors, peer reviewers, information specialists and so on. If Cochrane handed out 200 Chris Silagy prizes every year, it would still not be possible to reward all of those who have earned it. You are the true heart of Cochrane, and I will join your number now with pride." ⠀
⠀
Thanks for a great 10 years, David! ⠀

If you’ve ever been in an ICU or PCU/step down unit, I’m sure you’ve heard the distinct huffing and puffing noises from the #BiPAP machines in the hallways. Gain enough experience and you can even tell if someone is failing Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (#NIPPV) just from the sounds! Throughout the next few days I’ll be going through the data behind why us ICU docs love this piece of technology so much! This #cochranereview (usually the end-all be-all’s of meta analyses) goes over why we have started slapping these bad boys on the face of every #COPD exacerbation with a pH of less than 7.35 and a PCO2 greater than 49. A tip to the many authors of all the studies that were included in this.

Great news from @Cochrane_firstaid ⠀
⠀
The Belgian Red Cross specializes in the development of evidence-based first aid guidelines and materials. After the update of its basic first aid manual for Sub-Saharan Africa in 2016, a brand new manual with advanced first aid techniques, contextualized to Sub-Saharan Africa, is currently being developed. ⠀
⠀
The manual will be used during first responder training programs of several African Red Cross societies, including those of Malawi, South-Africa and Zimbabwe. First responders are laypeople who are trained to be the first line of support within their community when disaster strikes. ⠀
⠀
The guideline features evidence from 13 Cochrane Reviews of 8 different Cochrane group!⠀
