This text will enable biomedical researchers to use several advanced statistical methods that have proven valuable in medical research. The emphasis is on understanding the assumptions underlying each method, using exploratory techniques to determine the most appropriate method, and presenting results in a way that will be readily understood.

A considerable number of journal publications using a range of qualitative synthesis approaches has been published. Mary Dixon-Woods and colleagues (Mary Dixon-Woods, Booth, & Sutton, 2007) identified 42 qualitative evidence synthesis papers published in health care literature between 1990 and 2004. An ongoing update by Hannes and Macaitis (2010)identified around 100 additional qualitative or mixed methods syntheses. Yet these generally lack a clear, detailed description of what was done and why (Greenhalgh et al, 2007; McInnes & Wimpenny, 2008) . Choices are most commonly influenced by what others have successfully used in the past or by a particular school of thought (Atkins et al, 2008; Britten et al, 2002). This is a substantive limitation.This book brings balance to the options available to researchers, including approaches that have not had a substantial uptake among researchers. It provides arguments for when and why researchers or other parties of interest should opt for a certain approach to synthesis, which challenges they might face in adopting it and what the potential strengths and weaknesses are compared with other approaches.This book acts as a resource for readers who would otherwise have to piece together the methodology from a range of journal articles. In addition, it should stimulate further development and documentation of synthesis methodology in a field that is characterized by diversity.

The question of how to generate sufficient revenue to pay for health care has become a serious concern for nearly all European policy-makers. This book examines the advantages and disadvantages of funding arrangements currently in use across Europe. Adopting a cross-national, cross-disciplinary perspective, it assesses the relative merits of the main methods of raising resources including taxation; social, voluntary and supplemental forms of insurance; and self-pay including co-payments. Chapters written by leading health policy analysts review recent evidence and experience in both eastern and western Europe. The volume is introduced by a summary chapter which integrates conceptual issues in funding with an overview of the main advantages and disadvantages of each method of funding drawn from the expert chapters. This is an important book for students of health policy, health economics, public policy and managment, and for health managers and policy makers.

Ce deuxième rapport de l'ONDPS rassemble les données qui caractérisent la situation démographique, la répartition et l'évolution de l'activité des professions de santé. La croissance globale des effectifs de professionnels de santé est plus ou moins marquée selon les métiers. Elle s'accompagne de fortes disparités de répartition entre les territoires, les spécialités et les secteurs libéral et hospitalier.Ce rapport comporte une synthèse générale et trois tomes thématiques.Le tome I, Les effectifs et la répartition des professionnels de santé, met en regard les données quantitatives disponibles sur les effectifs et les données sur le renouvellement des différents métiers et leur attractivité. La situation de l'offre de soins de premier recours fait, dans cette première partie, l'objet d'un examen particulier.Le tome II, Analyse de deux professions : pharmaciens et infirmiers, fournit, pour les pharmaciens, un état des lieux prenant en compte les effectifs actuels et les résultats des projections à l'horizon 2005. Le métier de pharmacien d'officine est aussi analysé. Quant au travail de synthèse réalisé pour les infirmiers, il fait apparaître, à partir d'un bilan de connaissances régionales sur cette profession, des questions concernant le domaine de la formation et les trajectoires professionnelles.Le tome III, Les professionnels de santé, comptes rendus des auditions, constitue une photographie de l'ensemble des spécialités médicales et chirurgicales et des professions médicales et paramédicales. À partir des auditions organisées avec des représentants de ces professions, cette troisième phase du rapport rend compte de leur situation démographique et des perspectives de leur exercice.
