Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 9-Apr-2020
Lumbosacral radicular pain (commonly called sciatica) is a syndrome involving patients who report radiating leg pain.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-May-2018
Epidural analgesia is a central nerve block technique achieved by injection of a local anaesthetic close to the nerves that transmit pain, and is widely used as a form of pain relief in labour. However, there are concerns about unintended adverse effects - Epilepsy clinics versus general neurology or medical clinics

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-May-2016
Transient tachypnea of the newborn is characterized by tachypnea and signs of respiratory distress. Transient tachypnea typically appears within the first two hours of life in term and late preterm newborns. Although transient tachypnea of the newborn is - Epinephrine injection versus epinephrine injection and a second endoscopic method in high-risk bleeding ulcers
