PEER D9.13 Final Report
No full textPEER (Publishing and the Ecology of European Research), supported by the EC eContentplus programme, has been investigating the potential effects of the large-scale, systematic depositing of authors' final peer-reviewed manuscripts (so called Green Open Access or stage-two research output) on reader access, author visibility, and journal viability, as well as on the broader ecology of European research. The project ran from 1 September 2008 - 31 May 2012. This is PEER final report

Peer Review for Journals: Evidence on Quality Control, Fairness, and Innovation
No full textI reviewed the published empirical evidence concerning journal peer review, which consisted of 68 papers, all but three published since 1975. Peer review improves quality, but its use to screen papers has met with limited success. Current procedures to assure quality and fairness seem to discourage scientific advancement, especially important innovations, because findings that conflict with current beliefs are often judged to have defects. Editors can use procedures to encourage the publication of papers with innovative findings such as invited papers, early-acceptance procedures, author nominations of reviewers, results-blind reviews, structured rating sheets, open peer review, and, in particular, electronic publication. Some journals are currently using these procedures. The basic principle behind the proposals is to change the decision from whether to publish a paper to how to publish itpeer review, journals, publications
PEER D7.1b Additional Outcomes
No full textThe overriding aim of the PEER Project has been to investigate the effects of large-scale green open access. This has entailed building an infrastructure by involving publishers and repositories, designing an author deposit interface and enhancing the user experience. The means whereby the PEER Project has achieved its aims have engendered further results and reflections, thus adding value to the PEER Project. The following is a collection of these additional outcomes. Each outcome is independent

Postoperative swelling: influence of a negative pressure application in comparison to manual lymphatic drainage after total knee arthroplasty—a randomized controlled trial
No full textAbstract Purpose Postoperative soft tissue swelling is a significant factor influencing outcome after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This prospective study aims to investigate the influence of technical device assisted negative pressure therapy (NP) on early functional outcome after TKA. NP was therefore compared to manual lymphatic drainage (MLD). Methods A total of 50 consecutive patients undergoing primary TKA were enrolled. 25 subjects per group were either treated by conventional MLD or NP. Primary outcome parameter was defined as circumference of the affected limb in cm postoperative up to seven days postoperatively. Secondary outcome parameters were: Duration of hospitalization, subjective perception of pain (measured via visual analogue scale, VAS), affected limb’s ROM. Results NP showed an overall equivalent influence compared to MLD in reducing lower limb swelling, recovering of mobility and length of hospital stay after TKA. Moreover, the application of NP showed a significant decrease in overall pain perception compared to manual lymphatic drainage on day 2 and forth after surgery ( p < .05). Conclusions Our findings show that NP could be a useful device in clinical routine treating postoperative swelling after TKA. Its application is simple and effective for the patient. Particularly given the shortage of healthcare workers and physical therapists, there is a need for supportive measures that NP could fulfil
