“Cochrane” refers to a global independent
network of researchers, professionals, patients, and people interested in
health. Cochrane contributors, from more than 120 countries, work together to
produce credible, accessible health information that is free from commercial
sponsorship and other conflicts of interest. The work published in Cochrane is
recognized as representing an international gold standard for high quality,
trusted information. Moreover, the Cochrane stands out with its published
systematic reviews with an esteemed impact factor of 5.940.
The author team lead by Dr. Saurav Panda, Professor Sheeja Varghese, Professor Malaiappa Sankari, Professor N. D. Jayakumar and Dr. Surendar Ramamoorthi from Saveetha University, India, with the collaboration of Dr. Massimo Del Fabbro from Università degli Studi di Milano and his colleagues, Dr. Valentina Ceresoli, Dr. Caterina Ceci and Dr. Silvio Taschieri from University of Milan IRCCS Galazzi Orthopaedic Institute, contributed a high quality gold standard systematic review on “Autologous Platelet Concentrates in treatment of Periodontal Defects”.
The
Cochrane contributors are involved in gathering and summarizing the best evidence
from research to help its audience and make informed choices about treatment. The
mission of Cochrane is to provide accessible, credible information to support
informed decision-making for improving global health. Cochrane evidence provides a powerful tool to
enhance the healthcare knowledge and decision making.
As access
to health evidence increases, so do the risks of misinterpreting complex
content; meanwhile the likelihood of any one person getting a complete and
balanced picture decreases. The mission of Cochrane is to provide this complex information
in the form of high quality systematic reviews which are updated in a timely
basis by the contributors, to support informed decision-making and evidence
based interventions which would result in improved global health.
Cochrane's
contributors are affiliated to the organization through Cochrane groups:
healthcare subject-related review groups, thematic networks, groups concerned
with the methodology of systematic reviews, and regional centres. One of such
group held in INDIA is Cochrane Oral Health Group. We feel proud to be the part
of this group with our contribution towards the same.
