Objective To search for, assess, and summarize the best evidence for antimicrobial allergy assessment in hospitalized patients, so as to provide an evidence-based basis for clinical nursing practice. Methods UpToDate, BMJ Best Practice, National Guideline Clearinghouse, Guidelines International Network, Yimaitong, JBI Evidence Synthesis, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, CQVIP, SinoMed, and related association websites were searched by computer for literature about clinical decisions, guidelines, expert consensuses, evidence summaries, systematic reviews and meta-analyses related to antimicrobial allergy assessment in hospitalized patients. The search time limit was from the establishment of the databases to September 2024. Two researchers trained in evidence-based practice screened the literature and evaluated the quality independently. Finally, the evidence-based research group extracted and integrated the evidence after discussion. Results Totally 8 articles were involved, including 6 guidelines and 2 systematic reviews. Finally, 25 pieces of best evidence were obtained across 6 aspects, including the importance of antimicrobial allergy assessment, the subjects of allergy assessment, the personnel conducting allergy assessment, the content of allergy assessment, the recording of allergy history, and assessment tips. Conclusion When applying and transforming evidence, medical staff should fully consider the actual clinical situation and explore the evaluation scheme of antimicrobial allergy history of hospitalized patients with local characteristics, to improve the accuracy of evaluation of antimicrobial allergy history of hospitalized patients, so as to strengthen the safety management of drug use and improve the level of rational drug use.
Evidence-based dentistry has been established for more than a decade, and described as ‘the conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients＇. However, Orthodontic clinicians in China still tend to base their treatment protocols on the ‘it works in my hands＇evidence provided by their peers, mainly due to their weak experience in searching and applying clinical evidences. In this article, authors are willing to share their experience with their Chinese peers, and to promote the dissemination and application of evidence-based orthodontics in clinical practice.
Objective To define the attributes and priorities of evidence-based nursing curriculum needs of nursing students, so as to provide operational reference for the design and development of evidence-based nursing course in the future. Methods Questionnaire was designed based on Kano model, and convenient sampling method was adopted to investigate the nursing students who had received training or had experience in evidence-based nursing from September to November 2020. According to the Kano model attribute classification method, the need attribute of evidence-based nursing curriculum was defined. Results A total of 303 nursing students were investigated. Kano model analysis showed that 11 of the needs for evidence-based nursing courses were one-dimensional quality, which belonged to the dimension of teaching resources and teaching content, and 5 were indifference quality, which belonged to the course assessment dimension. The importance-satisfaction matrix showed that the need of evidence-based nursing curriculum was concentrated in the advantage area and minor excepting improvement area. Conclusions In the future curriculum design, evidence-based nursing teachers need to continue to maintain the demand items in the advantage area and constantly improve and perfect them. They also need to pay more attention to the demand items in the minor excepting improvement area. Combined with the current problems in evidence-based nursing practice and the evidence-based needs of students, teachers need to further put forward suggestions on evidence-based nursing curriculum.

Rapid, living evidence-based points, as a new model promoting the rapid translation of evidence, aim to integrate the current best evidence, clinical status, public/patient preferences and values, and provide concise and practical guidance rapidly to important questions concerned in clinical medicine and public health. This paper introduces the methodological framework for the development of "Rapid, Living Evidence-Based Points" from 4 aspects: initiation and planning, evidence search and review, development, update, publication and dissemination of evidence-based points, in order to provide a reference for domestic scholars in developing rapid, living evidence-based points.
We searched The Cochrane Library（Issue 3, 2005）, MEDLINE（1996-2005） ,CMCC（1996-2005）, VIP（1996-2005） ,CNKI（1996-2005） to summarize the available evidence of topiramate for an intractable epilepsy. After scanning all these articles, we identified 11 articles including meta-analysis, randomised controlled trials and systematic reviews to evaluate. Topiramate offered an alternative in the treament for intractable epilepsy, especially for partial epilepsy, and its efficacy was proven. Patients had good tolerance. And no intercross effects with the traditional anti-epileptic drugs were found. So topiramate had broad clinical value. The primary dosage of topiramate was 200mg/d. The sustaining dosage was 400-600mg/d. And we didn＇t recommend the dosage of more than 600mg/d.
