Cancer Preventive by Drinking Black or Green Tea

Cancer Preventive by Drinking Black or Green Tea

Introduction

This paper looks at a comparative effectiveness of green and black tea in preventing cancer among young women.  It narrows down to research about how green tea is effective than black in the prevention of cancer among young women (18 to 35 years), considering both have different antioxidant levels. PICO approach and search strategies adapted from Richardson-Tench et al. (2016, p. 47) have been used to assist in the research question (In young women will drinking green tea prevent cancer compared to drinking black tea).

PubMed is among the best databases since it gives a lot of comprehensive material on biomedical relating to cancer and tea drinking literature that helps to carry out the research.  That database provides citations with links to full-text content from the publisher and PubMed Central websites, which are crucial to the search question.  It also provides me with searching options, such as PubMed tools, full-text articles, topic-specific queries that help me to get accurate and relevant details of the research topic.  PubMed gave me an opportunity of using my search strategies in their search history to get relevant final results as per my clinical question. This provides me with a chance to concentrate on relevant material addressed by the four elements of PICO and the clinical question. The database also gives material that is relating to the literature of herbs and cancer, which is relevant to the clinical question. It also offers reliable material needed for the clinical question.

• JSTOR (digital library for students, researchers, and scholars)

This is also one of the best databases for my research since it provided me with books and journal about the relationship between cancer and black/green tea. It helps me to explore an extensive range of scholarly material on cancer prevention among young women drinking black and drink tea by using a strong teaching and research platform. The database also links me with substantial content at cheaper costs, which was of great assistance for the research. JSTOR gives me an opportunity of using my search strategies in their search history to get relevant final results according to the clinical question. This offered me a chance to narrow down to significant information addressed by the four elements of PICO and the clinical question. The database gave credible and reliable academic material, which was used for research and scholarly purposes on the research topic.

Paragraph 3

                     Relevant of final search results as related to the PICO/PICo question/elements

The final search results were significant since it helped to get specific literature relating to the search question. The final search result helped in determining well-built clinical questions. It also provided material required relevant to the issues of the research and phrased in a manner that directed the search to be precise and relevant. The final results were solid clinical focal points question that had exhibited four components. It showed supportive tool that assisted in focusing as well as organising the centre stage question into a searchable query. The final results were connected to the PICO elements that identified search concepts and terms used in search of the literature. The final results gave relevant and minimal answers that were achieved and related to the four elements of PICO method. Also, the final results contained all the elements of search question. Also, the final results captured the anticipated intervention and outcomes of drinking green tea to prevent cancer among the young women.  It has also helped in exploring an extensive range of scholarly material using an active teaching and research platform, and ultimately narrowing down to the only relating material to the clinical question of this research.

Conclusion

Use of PICO helped in search history of evidence-based material relating to young women drinking green tea and black tea in preventing cancer. The final results were easily achieved through the assistance of a table developed by Richardson-Tench et al. (2016, p. 47). It also helped in getting fewer and relevant material of the search question.
