/R AS WE IN THE 7ILD 7EST LIKE TO SAY

“howdy y’all”

Put on your hat and saddle up as we ride into Keystone for the 10th roundup of the Campbell Collaboration and the 18th roundup of the Cochrane Collaboration — the first Joint Colloquium of these two fine parties. Now “Colloquium,” for those of you who might not know, is a highfalutin’ word for “big meeting,” with lots of talk and arguing about how to make the world right. Feel free to speak your mind on the importance of the best meta-analytical methodology for unbiased health and social care data summarization, but if it must come to fists — and we all know it does sometimes — please remember to take your brawling outside. The cost of broken barstools used to persuade your colleagues will be added to your tab.

Speaking of tabs, we are especially grateful to our posse. We extend a big “Thanks, partner!” to all of the sponsors, organizers, facilitators, presenters, chairs and committee members that made this gathering possible. We also offer a shout-out to the local sheriff for keeping the order. Lastly, don’t spend all of your energy fussing and fighting ‘cuz we’re planning one heck of a shindig Thursday night at the barn, and we hope you’ll like the chuck. So make sure you take a bath and comb your hair. And wear lots of clothes ‘cuz it might get cold even if it ain’t snowing yet. And remember to smile pretty for the photographer — it’ll let the folks back home know you had a real good time in Colorado.

The Frederick Mosteller Award for Distinctive Contributions to Systematic Reviewing is named in honor of Charles Frederick Mosteller (1916-2006), who was the Roger I. Lee Professor of Mathematical Statistics at Harvard University. Many of his works in both theoretical and applied statistics are considered classic texts. Mosteller’s work and influence have extended to other fields, particularly health care and school education. The award is for an individual who has made an important contribution to the theory, method or practice of systematic reviewing in criminal justice, education, social welfare, or other areas within the ambit of the Campbell Collaboration.

2010 Prize Recipient 2010 Prize recipient – Julian Higgins Julian Higgins, Senior Statistician at the MRC Biostatistics Unit in Cambridge, UK, receives the award for his important contributions to systematic reviewing both in the Campbell and Cochrane Collaborations. Higgins is one of the lead Editors of the current Cochrane Handbook, and has authored several of its chapters.

The Robert Boruch Award for Distinctive Contributions to Research that Informs Public Policy is named in honor of Robert F. (Bob) Boruch. Dr. Boruch was among the earliest and most vocal proponents for the increased use of randomized experiments to inform public policy decision making, particularly in education. He has spent most of his career on the faculties of the Graduate School of Education and the Statistics Department in the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. The award is for an individual who has made an important contribution to research on social interventions that inform public policy in criminal justice, education, social welfare or other areas with the ambit of the Campbell Collaboration.

2010 Prize Recipient 2010 Prize recipient – Lawrence Sherman

and he is one of the founders of the Campbell Crime and Justice Group.

Lawrence Sherman, a leading figure in the growth of experimental criminology, is awarded the prize for his long standing work in advancing evidencebased policy in the field of crime and justice.

He has explored such wide ranging issues such as domestic violence, police crackdowns and saturation patrol, gun violence, crack houses, and restorative justice. He has collaborated with over 30 police and justice agencies around the world.

Sherman is Director of the Jerry Lee Center of Criminology at the University of Pennsylvania. In 2008, he founded the Jerry Lee Center of Experimental Criminology at Cambridge University, the only centre in the world devoted to experimental research in this field.

The Kenneth Warren Prize PRESENTATION: Closing Session, Friday, 22 October, 16:30

Kenneth Warren, MD

KENNETH WARREN (1929-1996)

Kenneth Warren (1929-1996) was a larger-than-life man who was a source of encouragement and support for many young people, particularly those living in developing countries. He was very influential in drawing attention to the ‘great neglected diseases’ that plague people in the poorer parts of the world. He was one of the first people to draw attention to the need for valid summaries of key research studies and to the way that electronic media could be used to disseminate the results of health research relevant to people in developing countries. Ken was an enthusiastic supporter of the pilot work in pregnancy and childbirth that led to the creation of The Cochrane Collaboration, and, with Fred Mosteller, he co-organised the meeting at the New York Academy of Sciences at which the vision for The Cochrane Collaboration was first made public.

21

Prizes and Awards Kenneth Warren Prize

Selection panel for 2010

The Kenneth Warren Prize has been established with individual and institutional donations (see cochrane.org for details) to celebrate and recognise Ken’s interests. It was awarded for the first time at the 8th Cochrane Colloquium in Cape Town, South Africa, in 2000. The Prize is awarded annually to the principal author of whichever systematic review published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and authored by a national living in a developing country, that is judged to be both of high methodological quality and relevant to health problems in developing countries. The Prize for any given year is open to the principal author of a review published in Issues 1 to 6 of The Cochrane Library that year, or Issues 6 to 12 of the previous year.

Jonathan Ipser (Chair), South Africa; Gawrie Galappaththy, Sri Lanka; Martin Meremikwu, Nigeria; Nandi Siegfried, South Africa.

The judgement is made by a panel comprised entirely of nationals of developing countries. The Prize recipient receives a certificate and US$1,000. Also, the travel, accommodation and conference registration costs of the Prize recipient and of the Chair of the selection panel are met to enable attendance at the Cochrane Colloquium to receive and present the Prize.

2006 - Jonathan Ipser, South Africa: Pharmacotherapy for post-traumatic stress disorder.

Kenneth Warren Prize recipients 2009 - Nandi Siegfried, South Africa. Male circumcision for prevention of heterosexual acquisition of HIV in men. 2008 - Martin Meremikwu, Nigeria. Chemoprophylaxis and intermittent treatment for preventing malaria in children. 2007 - Gawrie Galappaththy, Sri Lanka: Primaquine for preventing relapses in people with Plasmodium vivax malaria.

Prizes and Awards The Chris Silagy Prize PRESENTATION: Closing Session, Friday, 22 October, 16:30

Chris Silagy, AO, MD CHRIS SILAGY, AO, MD

Chris Silagy (1960-2001) was the founding Director of the Australasian Cochrane Centre, a former Chair of the Cochrane Collaboration Steering Group and instrumental in the development and success of The Cochrane Collaboration. Chris was energetic, positive and inspiring. Before his death in December 2001, Chris expressed a wish for a Fund to be established, to be held by the Monash Foundation. Chris initiated this fund with his own contribution, and requested donations be made to it instead of flowers or other tributes after his death. Chris requested that this Fund be used to recognise contributions to The Cochrane Collaboration in ways that are often insufficiently recognised; for example, providing administration, management, Colloquium organisation, communication and motivation - in short, the ‘glue’ that helps to keep The Cochrane Collaboration together. The establishment and perpetuation of the Prize was approved by the Cochrane Collaboration Steering Group in April 2002.

Chris Silagy Prize

Nominations and selection

The Chris Silagy Prize is awarded at every Cochrane Colloquium to an individual (or team) who has made an extraordinary contribution to the work of The Cochrane Collaboration. The Prize consists of AU$1,000 (drawn from the Chris Silagy Memorial Fund), a certificate which includes the words ‘for an extraordinary contribution to the work of The Cochrane Collaboration’, and expenses associated with attending the Colloquium (to be met by The Cochrane Collaboration). Potential recipients of the Chris Silagy Prize are required to have: X made an extraordinary contribution to The Cochrane Collaboration; X made a contribution that exceeds the expectations of their employment; X made a contribution to The Cochrane Collaboration that would not be recognised outside the scope of this Prize; X been identified by their peers as consistently contributing to a spirit of collaboration.

A call for nominations is made through The Cochrane Collaboration’s mailing lists in April each year. A selection panel of three individuals is appointed from past members of the Steering Group and its advisory committees, and the previous year’s Prize recipient (if not conflicted). A governing committee oversees the Prize.

Chris Silagy Prize recipients 2009 - Kate Cahill, Cochrane Tobacco Addiction Group 2008 - Rasmus Moustgaard, Nordic Cochrane Centre 2007 - Heather Maxwell, Peripheral Vascular Diseases Group 2006 - Monica Kjeldstrøm, Nordic Cochrane Centre 2005 - Janet Wale, Cochrane Consumer Network 2004 - Sonja Henderson, Cochrane Pregnancy and Childbirth Group 2003 - Gill Gyte, Cochrane Pregnancy and Childbirth Group 2002 - Jini Hetherington, Cochrane Collaboration Secretariat

Prizes and Awards The Bill Silverman Prize PRESENTATION: Closing Session, Friday, 22 October, 16:30 William Silverman, MD WILLIAM SILVERMAN, MD

William (Bill) Silverman (1924-2004) was one of the founders of American neonatal medicine. He was honoured repeatedly as one of the pioneers in his specialty; however, he often evoked somewhat contradictory responses amongst his colleagues because he was in the habit of raising troubling questions about the scientific basis and ethics of his and their practices. Like many of the people who have helped to establish The Cochrane Collaboration, Bill Silverman could be regarded as a ‘troublemaker’. As he reiterated frequently, however, criticism is a form of troublemaking that can help to drive progress. Furthermore, criticism should not be limited to examining the work of others, but should also include self-criticism.

Bill Silverman Prize The Bill Silverman Prize acknowledges explicitly the value of criticism of The Cochrane Collaboration, with a view to helping to improve its work, and thus achieve its aim of helping people make well-informed decisions about health care by providing the best possible evidence on the effects of healthcare interventions. The establishment of the Prize was approved by the Cochrane Collaboration Steering Group in 2007, and awarded for the first time in early 2008. The Prize is offered annually and the authors of a piece of research published or presented in the preceding 12 months (July to June) will be eligible. The criteria for the Prize are that the publication or presentation evaluated any aspect of the preparation, maintenance or dissemination of Cochrane reviews or the work of The Cochrane Collaboration more generally, and: X

was of high quality;

X

was accompanied by constructive suggestions on how the relevant aspects of the work of The Cochrane Collaboration could be improved; and

X

24

has had, or is likely to have, a positive impact on the scientific quality, relevance and use of Cochrane reviews.

The prize comprises a cash award of US$1,000 and a certificate. The cash award goes to the corresponding author of the selected publication or presentation. The Prize Committee calls for nominations for the Prize in May. Nominations can be made by anyone, including the authors of the publication or presentation being nominated.

Bill Silverman Prize Committee The Prize Committee comprises five members, at least three of whom do not have an active role within any Cochrane entity. Members of the Committee for 2010 are Cindy Farquhar (internal Co-Chair), Bill Summerskill (external Co-Chair), Jean Slutsky, Katharina Biester and David Moher (2009 Prize recipient).

Prizes and Awards

The Thomas C Chalmers Award PRESENTATION: Closing Session, Friday, 22 October, 16:30 Thomas C Chalmers, MD

THOMAS C CHALMERS, MD

Tom Chalmers (1917-1995) was an outspoken advocate of randomised trials, whether at the bedside, at professional meetings, in class or in situations pertaining to his own life. His creativity spanned his entire career, influencing clinicians and methodologists alike. He is perhaps best known for the notion ‘randomise the first patient’, his belief that it is more ethical to randomise patients than to treat them in the absence of good evidence. In his later years, in arguably his most important work, Tom and his colleagues showed that, had information from RCTs been systematically and cumulatively synthesised, important treatments such as thrombolytic therapy for myocardial infarction would have been recognised as useful much earlier.

Thomas C Chalmers Award The Thomas Chalmers Award was established with individual donations to celebrate and recognise Tom’s interests, and was awarded for the first time at the 2nd Cochrane Colloquium in Hamilton, Canada in 1994. The Award is given at each Cochrane Colloquium to the principal author of both the best oral and the best poster presentation addressing methodological issues related to systematic reviews given by an early career investigator. The presentations must demonstrate originality of thought, high quality science, relevance to the advancement of the science of systematic reviews, and clarity of presentation. Presentations are judged by the Thomas C Chalmers Award Committee during the course of the Colloquium, and the two recipients receive a certificate and US$500 each. The Chair of the Award Committee for 2010 is Georgia Salanti.

Generaland Prizes Information Awards (EALTH !GENDA OF THE !MERICAS 0RIZE 0!(/ 7(/ )##.

The Pan American Health Organization (PAHO/ WHO) supports and promotes the development and use of research to improve the life and wellbeing of the people of the Americas, as reflected in its policy on research for health (www.paho.org/researchportal). PAHO/WHO and the Cochrane Collaboration share synergic values and goals. PAHO/WHO wants to inspire Cochrane reviewers to address key public health and health systems research questions through the development of systematic reviews that provide helpful conclusions, have robust methods, and address topics deemed as a priority to the governments of the Americas. PAHO/ WHO has therefore decided to sponsor, in collaboration with the Ibero-American Cochrane Centre and Network and the graceful contribution of the Spanish Agency of International Cooperation for Development (AECID), a prize to recognize systematic reviews and protocols relevant to the Health Agenda for the Americas 2008-2017, signed by the national health authorities of the Americas in 2007. This prize is the result of a memorandum of understanding between PAHO/ WHO and the IberoAmerican Cochrane Centre. The selection committee was comprised of four senior PAHO/WHO delegates with diverse backgrounds that declared having no conflicts of interest. They screened systematic review and protocol titles as registered with the Ibero-American Cochrane Centre and Network and published in The Cochrane Library Issue 3 of 2009. Then, a selection panel scored the screened the reviews and protocols

26

by: relevance to the Health Agenda of the Americas 2008-2017, methodological quality, potential impact on public health, applicability, and equity considerations. All authors of the winning and finalist publications will be acknowledged with a certificate. An author of the winning Cochrane Review will be invited to the 2011 Cochrane Colloquium in Madrid. Congratulations to all awardees of this prize. Based on the scores and deliberations a decision was made to award recognitions as follows:

Cochrane Review: Interventions for American cutaneous and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis, by UrbĂ GonzĂĄlez, Mariona Pinart, MĂłnica Rengifo-Pardo, Antonio Macaya, Jorge Alvar, John A Tweed.

Cochrane Review Protocols: Supplementary feeding with nutritional education for caregivers for promoting growth and development in young children in developing countries, by Drs.

Enjoying your Stay: !LTITUDE 3ICKNESS !CUTE -OUNTAIN 3ICKNESS What can I do to prevent altitude sickness? X

Keystone Resort and Summit County, Colorado are located at high altitude (9280 feet/ 2828 meters) The air at high altitude has less oxygen—as a result, our bodies may take some time to adapt. Sometimes, this normal process results in uncomfortable symptoms called “altitude sickness� (Acute Mountain Sickness; AMS).

Once at higher altitudes we recommend you: X

Drink plenty of water – Replenishing fluids helps to stabilize your body. Because of the dryness, as well as the altitude, it is important to drink an extra 1-2 quarts a day.

X

Take it easy – Don’t overexert yourself. Heavy exertion puts you at risk for developing altitude sickness. Be mindful of how your body feels—fatigue is a common symptom of altitude adaptation.

X

Avoid tobacco, alcohol and salty foods – Keep smoking to a minimum, drink less alcohol and eat less salty foods, especially if you are feeling any symptoms of altitude sickness.

By following the tips below, you can decrease your chances of being affected by the altitude. However, please seek out a staff or volunteer member if you’re not feeling well.

Do I have altitude sickness? X

X

X

Altitude sickness (AMS) is a combination of symptoms that are present when your body does not adapt to its current altitude. Anyone who goes to altitude, regardless of age, gender, physical fitness, or previous altitude experience, can get AMS. The most frequent symptoms of AMS are: headache, nausea, tiredness and trouble sleeping. For most people, these symptoms will go away within 24-36 hours.

Avoid going directly to high altitude in one day—consider spending a day at a modest altitude such as Denver (5,000 to 6,000 feet)

When should I seek medical help? X

Symptoms lasting more than a couple of days, difficulty breathing at rest, loss of coordination, or extreme listlessness are signs you need to seek immediate medical attention.

X

If your symptoms get worse or do not go away after a day or two, or you have shortness of breath while you are at rest, you should seek medical help.

Frontier Life For explorers, gold seekers and pioneers, life in the West was their chance to achieve the life of their dreams. As groups traveled west to homestead property, farm or join the mining rush, there became a need to establish order through towns and local governments. The settlement of the state spanned several hundred years from the time first documented explorers arrived in the southern part of the state in the 1540s to the establishment of frontier towns in the early 1900s. Today, you can see evidence of early exploration at Pike’s Stockade or mining boomtowns like Leadville. Famous frontiersman such Kit Carson and Buffalo Bill Cody have left an indelible mark on our State’s history. #OLORADO 4OURISM /FlCE

Mining Boom

“There’s gold in them ‘thar hills.” Stories about gold in Colorado dated back as far as the 16th century. But it wasn’t until 1858, that these rumors became a reality. Explorer Zebulon Pike first heard about the stories from a trapper named James Purcell. In July of 1858, two groups – the Russell Party (lead by William Green Russell) and the Cherokees (lead by John Beck) – were successful in finding gold along the South Platte River in the heart of modern-day Denver. By the time these men returned home they found that stories of their discovery had already spread, leading to the peak of the gold rush in 1859. #OLORADO 4OURISM /FlCE

Wednesday, 20 October

American Indians After the Ancestral Puebloans left their cliff dwellings in the Southwest, the Ute tribe became the dominant people in the area. The Spanish explorers were the first to document their encounters with the Ute, Apache and Navajo tribes in the 1540s. Over the one hundred year period between 1720 and 1820 the American Indian tribes of Colorado diversified rather dramatically. In 1720s, the Ute tribes populated the majority of the state with a few Comanche tribes on the eastern plains, but over the next century the Ute tribal area decreased in size and the Cheyenne and Kiowas and Comanches had a strong presence. Today, there are numerous places to experience the daily life of American Indians as well as the tribes’ struggle to endure in the face of westward expansion.. ˆ #OLORADO 4OURISM /FlCE

Get Out And Play Whether you are looking for an extreme adventure or just one that’s extremely fun, you’ll find it in Colorado. Hike one of the state’s 54 “fourteeners” – mountains that reach an altitude of more than 14,000 feet above sea level. Go whitewater rafting down one of our many rivers. Ride a mountain bike along the Colorado Trail, a route famous for its 435 miles of trails. Or, try something new. Load up a llama or packhorse with your equipment and hike to the backcountry. Or, live like a cowboy and take a horseback ride at a Colorado dude ranch. You’ll also find plenty of relaxing activities waiting for you. Take a dip in a natural hot springs, get a massage at one of our many resorts or go antiques shopping. There’s never a shortage of fun things to do in Colorado. #OLORADO 4OURISM /FlCE
