Cochrane系统评价小组的全球合作及中国的突出贡献

International Activity in Cochrane Review Groups With Particular Reference to China

Cochrane协作网是世界上最大的致力于制作、保存、传播医疗保健干预措施效果系统评价的机构(www.cochrane.org)。这一国际性组织拥有来自近100个不同国家的协作者。自2000年起,我们定期核实积极参与Cochrane系统评价小组的成员人数,并按国家统计。2006年初,参与此项工作的协作者已近15000名,而2000年仅5500人。中国的发展尤其令人瞩目——从2000年的15人迅速增至2006年的415人,中国现已成为Cochrane协作网的第七大协作国。Cochrane系统评价和方案的作者人数增长尤为迅速。2000年,Cochrane系统评价小组作者名单中仅8位中国人,而2006年初就已增至370人。

The Cochrane Collaboration （www.cochrane.org） is the world＇s largest organisation dedicated to preparing, maintaining and promoting the accessibility of systematic reviews of the effects of healthcare interventions. It is an international organisation with participants in almost 100 countries. Since the year 2000, a periodic audit has been done to count the number of active members in the Cochrane Review Groups, subdivided by the country in which these people are based. At the beginning of 2006, there were almost 15 000 people involved, an increase from about 5 500 in 2000. The growth of activity in China has been particularly dramatic--from 15 in 2000 to 415 in 2006, making it the seventh largest contributor in the Collaboration. This increase has been especially large for authors of Cochrane reviews and protocols. In the year 2000, 8 people from China were listed as authors by the Cochrane Review Groups. At the beginning of 2006, this had risen to 370 people.
