Irish Child Health Database - Peer Reviewed Papers

Database Search

How to use this database.

• Method 1- uses a free natural language approach.

  After choosing the object of the search – by ticking title, abstract, aims and objective, or author - enter a term, word or name in the ‘Search’ box to return references answering your research question.

• Method 2 - utilises key words.

  Those key words assigned from thesauruses of controlled vocabulary by the trained coders of international bibliographic databases.
  The controlled vocabularies key word are listed alphanumerically under 'Bibliographic database keywords' .
  Use the drop down menu to identity which 'key words' you are interested in to return references to answer your research question.

• Method 3 - is based on the indexing system

  developed by the researchers who compiled this database.
  It adopts a thematic approach to mapping Irish child health research. The themed areas represent outcomes mapped to the International Classification of Disease version 10 (ICD-10) or one of 23 other health-related themed outcomes. Themes are defined in Tables 5 to 7 (of the study report).
  Use the alphabetic drop down menu under ‘ICD-10 or themed health-related outcomes’ to identity which themed areas you are interested in to select references to answer your research question.

• Method 4 – allows papers to be searched by Study type.

  Indexing by study type offers a valuable insight into understanding the population impact of the topic of interest. More than 20 study types were identified across the 2,152 study papers. These are defined in Table 3 (of the study report). Within 'Study type' papers are further stratification by geographical region (Table 49), topic area of interest and study aims and objectives.
  Click on 'Study type' to select the type of study of interest, progressively select sub-categories by topic area or other sub-classification of interest to answer your research question.

The complete background, methods and findings from this mapping exercise are detailed in the study report.

• 1.   Characterization of the C-terminal region of molecular forms of human milk bile salt-stimulated lipase

  The aim of the study was to determine the structural features of Bile salt-stimulated lipase that may give rise to multiple molecular forms of bile salt-stimulated lipase in human milk

  

  Abstract:

  Bile salt-stimulated lipase (BSSL) in human milk exists in multiple molecular forms and it has been shown that approximately one-third of lactating mothers secrete two forms. AIM: to determine the structural features of BSSL that may give rise to this heterogeneity. METHODS: Oligosaccharides present in the proline-rich region in the C-terminus of BSSL were investigated using more...

• 2.   Molecular characterization of rotavirus in Ireland: detection of novel strains circulating in the population

  The aim of this study was to examine the molecular characterization of rotavirus in Ireland: and the detection of novel strains circulating in the population

  

  Abstract:

  A collection of three hundred thirty rotavirus-positive stool samples from children with diarrhea in the southern and eastern regions of Ireland between 1997 and 1999 were submitted to the Molecular Diagnostics Unit of the Cork Institute of Technology, Cork, Ireland, for investigation. These strains were characterized by several methods, including polyacrylamide gel electropherotyping more...
