- Amniotic fluid index versus single deepest vertical pocket as a screening test for preventing adverse pregnancy outcome
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-May-2009
Amniotic fluid volume is an important parameter in the assessment of fetal well-being. Oligohydramnios occurs in many high-risk conditions and is associated with poor perinatal outcomes. Many caregivers practice planned delivery by induction of labor or c - Amniotic membrane transplantation for acute ocular burns
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 9-Apr-2015
Ocular surface burns can be caused by chemicals (alkalis and acids) or by direct heat. Amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) performed in the acute phase (day 0 to day 7) of an ocular surface burn is reported to relieve pain, accelerate healing and redu - Amniotomy alone for induction of labour
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Jul-2012
Amniotomy (deliberate rupture of the membranes) is a simple procedure which can be used alone for induction of labour if the membranes are accessible, thus avoiding the need for pharmacological intervention. However, the time interval from amniotomy to es - Amniotomy for shortening spontaneous labour
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Jun-2013
Intentional artificial rupture of the amniotic membranes during labour, sometimes called amniotomy or 'breaking of the waters', is one of the most commonly performed procedures in modern obstetric and midwifery practice. The primary aim of amniotomy is to - Amniotomy for shortening spontaneous labour
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Jun-2009
Early amniotomy has been advocated as a component of the active management of labour. Several randomised trials comparing routine amniotomy to an attempt to conserve the membranes have been published. Their limited sample sizes limit their ability to addr - Amniotomy plus intravenous oxytocin for induction of labour
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Jan-2013
Induction of labour is a common obstetric intervention. Amniotomy alone for induction of labour is reviewed separately and oxytocin alone for induction of labour is being prepared for inclusion in The Cochrane Library. This review will address the use of - Amodiaquine for treating malaria

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common psychiatric conditions affecting children and adolescents. Amphetamines are among the most commonly prescribed medications to manage ADHD. There are three main classes of amphetamin - Amphetamines for improving recovery after stroke
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Jul-2008
Animal research shows that treatment with amphetamines improves recovery after focal cerebral ischaemia. If the effects are similar in humans, amphetamine treatment could have a major impact on recovery from stroke. - Amphetamines for schizophrenia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 9-Nov-2010
It is estimated that between 10% and 65% of people with schizophrenia use illicit drugs such as amphetamines.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Nov-2015
The incidence of invasive fungal infections has increased globally as a result of several factors. Conventional amphotericin B (sodium deoxycholate) has been used as standard therapy for the treatment of invasive fungal infections; however, it is associat - Amphotericin B lipid soluble formulations versus amphotericin B in cancer patients with neutropenia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Mar-2017
Patients with cancer who are treated with chemotherapy or receive a bone marrow transplant have an increased risk of acquiring fungal infections. Such infections can be life-threatening. Antifungal drugs are therefore often given prophylactically to such - Amphotericin B versus fluconazole for controlling fungal infections in neutropenic cancer patients
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Mar-2017
Systemic fungal infection is considered to be an important cause of morbidity and mortality in cancer patients, particularly those with neutropenia. Antifungal drugs are often given prophylactically, or empirically to patients with persistent fever. - Amplification with hearing aids for patients with tinnitus and co-existing hearing loss
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Jan-2014
Tinnitus is described as the perception of sound or noise in the absence of real acoustic stimulation.
