In the context of the White Book of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine (PRM), this paper deals with Research, the future of PRM. PRM students and specialists are mainly involved in biomedical research, investigating the biological processes, the causes of diseases, their medical diagnosis, the evaluation of their consequences on functioning, disability and health and the effects of health interventions at an individual and a societal level. Most of the current PRM research, often interdisciplinary, originates from applied research which, using existing knowledge, is directed towards specific goals. Translational medical research, research and development, implementation research and clinical impact research are in this field. PRM physicians, mainly master or PhD students, are nowadays increasing their participation in basic research and in pre-clinical trials. PRM physicians are involved in primary research, which is an original first hand research, but also in secondary research, which is the analysis and interpretation of primary research publications in a field, with a specific methodology. Secondary research remains an important activity of the UEMS PRM section and it will be the field of the new created Cochrane Rehabilitation. Secondary research with interest for persons with disabilities, will be developed world wide on the basis of evidence based medicine, with the participation of PRM physicians and of all other health and social professionals involved in rehabilitation. The development of research activities with interest for PRM in Europe is a challenge for the future, which has to be faced now. The European PRM schools, the European master and PhD program with their supporting research and clinical facilities, the European PRM organizations with their websites, the PRM scientific journals and European congresses are a strong basis to develop research activities, together with the development of Cochrane Rehabilitation field and of our cooperation with European high level research facilities, European and international scientific societies in different fields. PRM will be a leader in this field of research.
在物理医学与康复（PRM）白皮书的背景下，本文探讨了研究，即 PRM 的未来。PRM 的学生和专家主要参与生物医学研究，研究生物过程、疾病的原因、医学诊断、其对功能、残疾和健康的影响以及个体和社会层面的健康干预措施的效果。当前 PRM 研究大部分是跨学科的，源于应用研究，利用现有知识针对特定目标进行研究。转化医学研究、研究与开发、实施研究和临床影响研究都属于这一领域。PRM 医生，主要是硕士或博士研究生，现在越来越多地参与基础研究和临床前试验。PRM 医生参与原始的一手研究，即初级研究，也参与分析和解释某一领域的初级研究出版物的二次研究，这需要特定的方法。二次研究仍然是 UEMS PRM 科的一项重要活动，它将是新成立的 Cochrane Rehabilitation 的领域。基于循证医学，将在全世界开展对残疾人士有兴趣的二次研究，其中 PRM 医生和所有参与康复的其他卫生和社会专业人员都将参与。在欧洲发展对 PRM 有兴趣的研究活动是未来的挑战，现在必须面对。欧洲 PRM 学校、欧洲硕士和博士课程及其支持的研究和临床设施、具有网站的欧洲 PRM 组织、PRM 科学期刊和欧洲大会是开展研究活动的坚实基础，同时还将开展 Cochrane Rehabilitation 领域的工作，并加强与欧洲高水平研究设施、不同领域的欧洲和国际科学协会的合作。PRM 将成为这一研究领域的领导者。
