The most frequent indications for tooth extractions are dental caries and periodontal infections, and these extractions are generally done by general dental practitioners. Antibiotics may be prescribed to patients undergoing extractions to prevent complic - Antibiotics versus placebo for acute bacterial conjunctivitis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 1-Aug-2012
Acute bacterial conjunctivitis is an infection of the conjunctiva. Both the palpebral and the bulbar ocular conjunctival surfaces are usually affected and typically become red and inflamed. Antibiotic therapy is widely used for the treatment of acute bact - Antibiotics versus placebo for prevention of postoperative infection after appendicectomy.
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Sep-2008
Appendicitis is the most common cause of acute abdominal pain requiring surgical intervention. The cause of appendicitis is unclear and the mechanism of pathogenesis continues to be debated. Despite improved asepsis and surgical techniques, postoperative - Antibody induction therapy for lung transplant recipients
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Nov-2013
Lung transplantation has become a valuable and well-accepted treatment option for most end-stage lung diseases. Lung transplant recipients are at risk of transplanted organ rejection, and life-long immunosuppression is necessary. Clear evidence is essenti - Antibody induction versus corticosteroid induction for liver transplant recipients
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 31-May-2014
Liver transplantation is an established treatment option for end-stage liver failure. To date, no consensus has been reached on the use of immunosuppressive T-cell specific antibody induction compared with corticosteroid induction of immunosuppression aft - Antibody induction versus placebo, no induction, or another type of antibody induction for liver transplant recipients
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 9-Jul-2014
Liver transplantation is an established treatment option for end-stage liver failure. To date, no consensus has been reached on the use of immunosuppressive T-cell antibody induction for preventing rejection after liver transplantation. - Antibody therapies for lymphoma in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Jan-2016
Lymphomas are the third most common malignancy in childhood. Cure rates are high but have reached a plateau. Therefore new treatment modalities should be developed. Antibody therapy is a successful new treatment option in adult lymphoma. However, none of - Anticholinergic agents for chronic asthma in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Jul-2017
Anticholinergic agents such as ipratropium bromide are sometimes used in the treatment of chronic asthma. They effect bronchodilation and have also been used in combination with ß2 -agonists in the management of chronic asthma. - Anticholinergic bronchodilators versus beta2-sympathomimetic agents for acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Jun-2008
Inhaled bronchodilators form the mainstay of treatment for acute exacerbations of COPD. Two types of agent are used routinely, either singly or in combination: anticholinergic agents and beta2-sympathomimetic agonists. - Anticholinergic drugs versus placebo for overactive bladder syndrome in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Nov-2008
Around 16% of adults have symptoms of overactive bladder (urgency with frequency and/or urge incontinence). The prevalence increases with age. Anticholinergic drugs are commonly used to treat this condition. - Anticholinergic medication for non-clozapine neuroleptic-induced hypersalivation in people with schizophrenia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Oct-2013
Treatment of schizophrenia depends heavily on neuroleptic drugs. Hypersalivation is a common side effect when people with schizophrenia are treated with neuroleptic drugs.
