Short cognitive tests can be helpful in identify - Minilaparotomy and endoscopic techniques for tubal sterilisation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Jul-2004
In industrialised countries sterilisation is generally performed by laparoscopy. In settings where the resources for purchase and maintenance of laparoscopic equipment are limited, minilaparotomy may still be the most common approach. The advantages and d - Minimally invasive discectomy versus microdiscectomy/open discectomy for symptomatic lumbar disc herniation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 31-Aug-2014
Microdiscectomy or open discectomy (MD/OD) are the standard procedures for symptomatic lumbar disc herniation and they involve removal of the portion of the intervertebral disc compressing the nerve root or spinal cord (or both) with or without the aid of - Minimally invasive parathyroidectomy guided by intraoperative parathyroid hormone monitoring (IOPTH) and preoperative imaging versus bilateral neck exploration for primary hyperparathyroidism in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Oct-2020
Bilateral neck exploration (BNE) is the traditional approach to sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism. With the availability of the preoperative imaging techniques and intraoperative parathyroid hormone assays, minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) is - Minimally invasive surgery versus open surgery for the treatment of solid abdominal and thoracic neoplasms in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Jan-2015
Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is an accepted surgical technique for the treatment of a variety of benign diseases. Presently, the use of MIS in patients with cancer is progressing.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Nov-2016
More than 400,000 cases of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) are diagnosed each year worldwide and the incidence is rising, partly as a result of human papillomavirus. Human papillomavirus-associated OPSCC affects younger patients and often pr - Minimally invasive surgical techniques versus open myomectomy for uterine fibroids
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Oct-2014
Fibroids are common benign tumours arising in the uterus. Myomectomy is the surgical treatment of choice for women with symptomatic fibroids who prefer or want uterine conservation. Myomectomy can be performed by conventional laparotomy, by mini-laparotom - Minimally invasive treatments for lower urinary tract symptoms in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia: a network meta‐analysis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Jul-2021
A variety of minimally invasive treatments are available as an alternative to transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) for management of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). However, it is unclear which - Minimally invasive versus open surgery for reversal of tubal sterilization
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Jan-2013
Although tubal sterilization procedures are considered to be permanent, requests for reversal of the procedure (re-canalisation) are not infrequent. The reversal procedure can be done either by an open laparotomy or by minimally invasive surgery (laparosc - Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) for the detection of dementia in clinically unevaluated people aged 65 and over in community and primary care populations
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Apr-2016
The Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) is a cognitive test that is commonly used as part of the evaluation for possible dementia. - Mini‐Mental State Examination (MMSE) for the early detection of dementia in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI)
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Jul-2021
Dementia is a progressive global cognitive impairment syndrome. In 2010, more than 35 million people worldwide were estimated to be living with dementia. Some people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) will progress to dementia but others remain stable o - Miniports versus standard ports for laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 1-Aug-2013
In conventional (standard) port laparoscopic cholecystectomy, four abdominal ports (two of 10 mm diameter and two of 5 mm diameter) are used. Recently, use of smaller ports, miniports, have been reported. - Minocycline for acne vulgaris: efficacy and safety
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Aug-2012
Minocycline is an oral antibiotic used for acne vulgaris. Its use has lessened due to safety concerns (including potentially irreversible pigmentation), a relatively high cost, and no evidence of any greater benefit than other acne treatments. A modified- - Mirror therapy for improving motor function after stroke
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Jul-2018
Mirror therapy is used to improve motor function after stroke. During mirror therapy, a mirror is placed in the person's midsagittal plane, thus reflecting movements of the non-paretic side as if it were the affected side. - Mirtazapine adjunct for people with schizophrenia
