- Mannitol for acute stroke
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Jul-2007
Mannitol is an osmotic agent and a free radical scavenger which might decrease oedema and tissue damage in stroke. - Mannitol for acute traumatic brain injury
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Aug-2013
Mannitol is sometimes effective in reversing acute brain swelling, but its effectiveness in the ongoing management of severe head injury remains unclear. There is evidence that, in prolonged dosage, mannitol may pass from the blood into the brain, where i - Mannitol versus hypertonic saline for brain relaxation in patients undergoing craniotomy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 1-Feb-2017
Patients with brain tumour usually suffer from increased pressure in the skull due to swelling of brain tissue. A swollen brain renders surgical removal of the brain tumour difficult. To ease surgical tumour removal, measures are taken to reduce brain swe - Manual lymphatic drainage for lymphedema following breast cancer treatment
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-May-2015
More than one in five patients who undergo treatment for breast cancer will develop breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL). BCRL can occur as a result of breast cancer surgery and/or radiation therapy. BCRL can negatively impact comfort, function, and qu - Manual material handling advice and assistive devices for preventing and treating back pain in workers
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Jun-2011
Training and the provision of assistive devices are considered major interventions to prevent back pain and its related disability among workers exposed to manual material handling (MMH). - Manual removal of placenta at caesarean section
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Apr-2008
Although manual removal of the placenta is commonly carried out, opinions differ about the best technique for delivery of the placenta at caesarean section. - Manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) with posterior chamber intraocular lens versus extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE) with posterior chamber intraocular lens for age‐related cataract
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Nov-2014
Age-related cataract is the opacification of the lens, which occurs as a result of denaturation of lens proteins. Age-related cataract remains the leading cause of blindness globally, except in the most developed countries. A key question is what is the b - Manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) with posterior chamber intraocular lens versus phacoemulsification with posterior chamber intraocular lens for age-related cataract
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 9-Sep-2013
Age-related cataract is a major cause of blindness and visual morbidity worldwide. It is therefore important to establish the optimal technique of lens removal in cataract surgery. - Manual therapy and exercise for adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder)
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Aug-2014
Adhesive capsulitis (also termed frozen shoulder) is commonly treated by manual therapy and exercise, usually delivered together as components of a physical therapy intervention. This review is one of a series of reviews that form an update of the Cochran - Manual therapy and exercise for rotator cuff disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Jun-2016
Management of rotator cuff disease often includes manual therapy and exercise, usually delivered together as components of a physical therapy intervention. This review is one of a series of reviews that form an update of the Cochrane review, 'Physiotherap - Manual therapy for asthma
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Feb-2011
A variety of manual therapies with similar postulated biologic mechanisms of action are commonly used to treat patients with asthma. Manual therapy practitioners are also varied, including physiotherapists, respiratory therapists, chiropractic and osteopa - Manually‐generated reminders delivered on paper: effects on professional practice and patient outcomes
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Dec-2019
Health professionals sometimes do not use the best evidence to treat their patients, in part due to unconscious acts of omission and information overload. Reminders help clinicians overcome these problems by prompting them to recall information that they - Marine‐derived n‐3 fatty acids therapy for stroke
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Jun-2019
Currently, with stroke burden increasing, there is a need to explore therapeutic options that ameliorate the acute insult. There is substantial evidence of a neuroprotective effect of marine-derived n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in experimental - Mass drug administration for malaria
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Sep-2021
Studies evaluating mass drug administration (MDA) in malarious areas have shown reductions in malaria immediately following the intervention. However, these effects vary by endemicity and are not sustained. Since the 2013 version of this Cochrane Review o - Mass media interventions for preventing smoking in young people
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Jun-2017
Mass media interventions can be used as a way of delivering preventive health messages. They have the potential to reach and modify the knowledge, attitudes and behaviour of a large proportion of the community. - Mass media interventions for promoting HIV testing
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Nov-2008
Use of the mass media is one of the important strategies in communicating behavioral change in relation to HIV/AIDS prevention. Mass media are used to promote voluntary HIV counseling and testing and to sustain test-seeking behavior. - Mass media interventions for reducing mental health-related stigma
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 3-Jul-2013
Mental health-related stigma is widespread and has major adverse effects on the lives of people with mental health problems. Its two major components are discrimination (being treated unfairly) and prejudice (stigmatising attitudes). Anti-stigma initiativ - Mass media interventions for smoking cessation in adults
