Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
For some problems, a systematic review may be available from a source such as the
Cochrane Library. Often this review is done by an expert panel providing excellent information
on which to base decisions. This approach is more likely to produce valid and reliable results
than a Google search and is more efficient than searching journal manually or ordering articles
through PubMed.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, B, C, D
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is a cabinet-level
administrative unit of the federal government with four major service divisions and many
different sections. The Public Health Service includes the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC). The National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Food and Drug
Administration, the Health Resources Administration, and the Center for Medical & Medicare
Services (CMS) are all part of HHS. The NLN is not a department or agency affiliated with the
federal government.
