- Low level laser therapy (Classes III) for treating osteoarthritis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-May-2010
Osteoarthritis (OA) affects a large portion of the population. Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a light source that generates extremely pure light, of a single wavelength. The effect is not thermal, but rather related to photochemical reactions in the ce - Low level laser therapy for nonspecific low‐back pain
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-Apr-2008
Low-back pain (LBP) is a major health problem and a major cause of medical expenses and disablement. Low level laser therapy (LLLT) can be used to treat musculoskeletal disorders such as back pain. - Low level laser therapy for treating tuberculosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Apr-2006
The main treatment for tuberculosis is antituberculous drugs. Low level laser therapy is used as an adjunct to antituberculous drugs, predominantly in the former Soviet Union and India. - Low molecular weight heparin for prevention of central venous catheter‐related thrombosis in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Jun-2020
The prevalence of children diagnosed with thrombotic events has been increasing in the last decades. The most common thrombosis risk factor in neonates, infants and children is the placement of a central venous catheter (CVC). It is unknown if anticoagula - Low molecular weight heparin for prevention of microvascular occlusion in digital replantation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Apr-2020
The success of digital replantation is highly dependent on the patency of the repaired vessels after microvascular anastomosis. Antithrombotic agents are frequently used for preventing vascular occlusion. Low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) has been repor - Low molecular weight heparin for prevention of venous thromboembolism in patients with lower‐limb immobilization
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Aug-2017
Immobilization of the lower limb is a risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE). Low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs) are anticoagulants, which might be used in adult patients with lower-limb immobilization to prevent deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and - Low molecular weight heparins versus unfractionated heparin for acute coronary syndromes
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Aug-2010
Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are an important source of morbidity and mortality. Despite weak evidence for the use of unfractionated heparin (UFH) for acute coronary syndromes it is considered an accepted treatment for unstable angina and non-ST segment - Low oxygen concentrations for embryo culture in assisted reproductive technologies
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Jun-2012
During in vitro fertilisation (IVF) procedures, human preimplantation embryos are cultured in the laboratory. While some laboratories culture in an atmospheric oxygen concentration (˜ 20%), others use a lower concentration (˜ 5%) as this is more comparabl - Low pressure versus standard pressure pneumoperitoneum in laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Mar-2014
A pneumoperitoneum of 12 to 16 mm Hg is used for laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Lower pressures are claimed to be safe and effective in decreasing cardiopulmonary complications and pain. - Low protein diets for non‐diabetic adults with chronic kidney disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Oct-2020
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined as reduced function of the kidneys present for 3 months or longer with adverse implications for health and survival. For several decades low protein diets have been proposed for participants with CKD with the aim of - Low versus high haemoglobin concentration threshold for blood transfusion for preventing morbidity and mortality in very low birth weight infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Sep-2011
Infants of very low birth weight often receive multiple transfusions of red blood cells, usually in response to predetermined haemoglobin or haematocrit thresholds. In the absence of better indices, haemoglobin levels are imperfect but necessary guides to - Low vision rehabilitation for better quality of life in visually impaired adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Jan-2020
Low vision rehabilitation aims to optimise the use of residual vision after severe vision loss, but also aims to teach skills in order to improve visual functioning in daily life. Other aims include helping people to adapt to permanent vision loss and imp - Low‐carbohydrate versus balanced‐carbohydrate diets for reducing weight and cardiovascular risk
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Jan-2022
Debates on effective and safe diets for managing obesity in adults are ongoing. Low-carbohydrate weight-reducing diets (also known as 'low-carb diets') continue to be widely promoted, marketed and commercialised as being more effective for weight loss, an - Low‐dose dopamine for women with severe pre‐eclampsia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 24-Jan-2007
Hypertensive disorders during pregnancy are important causes of maternal mortality and morbidity worldwide. The long-term outcome of surviving mothers will depend largely on whether intracranial haemorrhage or renal failure developed. Low-dose dopamine is - Low‐dose oral misoprostol for induction of labour
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Jun-2021
Misoprostol given orally is a commonly used labour induction method. Our Cochrane Review is restricted to studies with low-dose misoprostol (initially = 50 µg), as higher doses pose unacceptably high risks of uterine hyperstimulation. - Low-dose rate brachytherapy for men with localized prostate cancer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-May-2011
Localized prostate cancer is a slow growing tumor for many years for the majority of affected men. Low-dose rate brachytherapy (LDR-BT) is short-distance radiotherapy using low-energy radioactive sources. LDR-BT has been recommended for men with low risk - Lower versus higher oxygen concentrations titrated to target oxygen saturations during resuscitation of preterm infants at birth
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-May-2018
Initial resuscitation with air is well tolerated by most infants born at term. However, the optimal fractional inspired oxygen concentration (FiO2 - proportion of the breathed air that is oxygen) targeted to oxygen saturation (SpO2 - an estimate of the am - Low-fat diets for acquired hypercholesterolaemia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Jan-2011
Hypercholesterolaemia, characterised by raised blood cholesterol levels, is not a disease itself but a metabolic derangement that often contributes to many diseases, notably cardiovascular disease. In most cases, elevated cholesterol levels are associated - Low‐level laser therapy for carpal tunnel syndrome
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Aug-2017
The role of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) in the management of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is controversial. While some trials have shown distinct advantages of LLLT over placebo and some other non-surgical treatments, other trials have not. - Low‐molecular‐weight heparins for managing vaso‐occlusive crises in people with sickle cell disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Dec-2015
Sickle cell disease is one of the most common and severe genetic disorders in the world. It can be broadly divided into two distinct clinical phenotypes characterized by either haemolysis or vaso-occlusion. Pain is the most prominent symptom of vaso-occlu
