Notions of Reliability:Considering the Importance of Difference in Guiding Patients to Health Care Web Sites

OBJECTIVES: This article analyzes the efforts of three organizations to provide a standard that guides Internet users to reliable health care sites. METHODS: Comparison of health Internet sites, interviews and document studies. RESULTS: In comparing these approaches, three different constructions of reliability are identified. Conclusions: The resulting possibilities and restrictions of these constructions for users that are searching for health information on the Internet are revealed.

Keywords: Internet user, health care, reliability, Internet health sites, qualitative research methods

Within-subject variation of plasma resistin levels over a 1-year period

Background: Resistin, a recently discovered hormone, is purportedly involved in metabolic and inflammatory processes in humans and may thus be an important marker to assess disease risk in large-scale epidemiological studies.

Methods: We assessed the reliability of human resistin levels in 63 men and 51 women aged 35–67 years with repeated measurements of resistin over a period of 1 year...

Keywords: biomarker, inflammation, obesity, reliability, risk factor
