Research methodology and effectiveness as well as manner of presentation can differ dramatically among researchers. The purpose of this paper is to review three examples of research
and to compare them in terms of key criteria such as research design, statement of problem, proper layout of the background of the problem being investigated and the variables involved
in that background, and the adequate use of the literature to delineate the problem. The first article chosen in this quest
is that completed by Ortega and Calderon in their examination of pediatric asthma among the children of Harlem, New York. These authors first define asthma as a significant problem
in economically and culturally ravaged areas such as Harlem. They emphasize that it is one of several restrictive airway diseases (RAD) which can be complicated by a number of
factors. Some of these factors are biological but others are environmental. One of the most valuable messages in the introductory material provided by these authors is that the
impacts of pediatric asthma can be lessened by a number of primary preventative methods such as the reduction of reduction of indoor irritants such as dust mites, tobacco smoke and
pet allergens. Such a reduction is not always possible or even sufficient, however, to prevent asthma. In these cases a number of pharmacological treatments can be employed.
Some of these, however, have concerning implications in regard to growth and physiological development. Even when treated pediatric asthma can result in frequent hospitalizations and a number of nursing
consideration both inside and outside the clinical environment. Following their introduction to the impacts of pediatric asthma Ortega and Calderon (2003)
