OBJECTIVE
To identify any medical or public health rationale for claims that the time to act is now.
DESIGN
Pseudo-systematic review.
DATA SOURCES
PubMed.
STUDY SELECTION
Studies that included the claim "time is now" in the title, with or without exclamation marks. No language or date restriction was applied.
RESULTS
512 articles were included for review. No relationship was identified between time to act and disease burden, severity, or specialty. Claims that the time to act was Christmas were almost entirely without basis. A clustering of claims that it is time to act in the first quarter of the year suggested a possible association with New Year's resolutions.
CONCLUSIONS
Now is as good a time as any.
目的
确定现在采取行动的说法在医学或公共卫生方面有何依据。
设计
伪系统评价。
资料来源
PubMed。
研究选择
标题中包含“现在是时候了”这一说法的研究，无论是否有感叹号。未对语言或日期进行限制。
结果
共纳入 512 篇文章进行综述。未发现采取行动的时机与疾病负担、严重程度或专业之间存在任何关系。声称现在是圣诞节采取行动的说法几乎毫无根据。第一季度采取行动的说法集中出现，这可能与新年决心有关。
结论
现在是采取行动的好时机。
