- Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or motor neuron disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-Apr-2013
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as motor neuron disease (MND), is a progressive neurodegenerative disease without effective therapies. Several studies have suggested that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) may have positiv - Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for tinnitus
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 31-Aug-2011
Tinnitus is the perception of sound, in the ear or in the head, in the absence of any external acoustic stimulation. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive means of inducing electrical currents in the brain, and has received - Replacement arthroplasty versus internal fixation for extracapsular hip fractures in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Nov-2008
Internal fixation, commonly used for extracapsular hip fractures, may fail particularly in unstable fractures. Replacement of the hip using arthroplasty, often used for intracapsular fractures, has been used as an alternative. - Replacement of estrogens and progestins to prevent morbidity and mortality in preterm infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Oct-2008
A potential therapeutic effect of sex steroids on premature infants has been proposed from animal data and observational studies in humans. Purported benefits include reduction in chronic lung disease, improved bone density and improved neurodevelopmental - Replacement versus repair of defective restorations in adults: amalgam
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Mar-2014
Amalgam is a common filling material for posterior teeth, as with any restoration amalgams have a finite life-span. Traditionally replacement was the ideal approach to treat defective amalgam restorations, however, repair offers an alternative more conser - Replacement versus repair of defective restorations in adults: resin composite
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Mar-2014
Composite filling materials have been increasingly used for the restoration of posterior teeth in recent years as a tooth-coloured alternative to amalgam. As with any filling material composites have a finite life-span. Traditionally, replacement was the - Repositioning for pressure injury prevention in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
A pressure injury (PI), also referred to as a 'pressure ulcer', or 'bedsore', is an area of localised tissue damage caused by unrelieved pressure, friction, or shearing on any part of the body. Immobility is a major risk factor and manual repositioning a - Repositioning for treating pressure ulcers
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Dec-2014
Pressure, from lying or sitting on a particular part of the body results in reduced oxygen and nutrient supply, impaired drainage of waste products and damage to cells. If a patient with an existing pressure ulcer continues to lie or bear weight on the af - Rescue high frequency oscillatory ventilation versus conventional ventilation for pulmonary dysfunction in preterm infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-Sep-2008
Despite the increased use of antenatal steroids and surfactant replacement therapy, pulmonary disease, principally due to the respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), continues to be a major cause of mortality and morbidity in neonates. In addition to immatur - Rescue high‐frequency jet ventilation versus conventional ventilation for severe pulmonary dysfunction in preterm infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Oct-2015
Chronic lung disease (CLD) is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in very low birth weight infants despite increased use of antenatal steroids and surfactant therapy. Ventilator injury and oxygen toxicity are thought to be important factors in the pa - Resection versus no intervention or other surgical interventions for colorectal cancer liver metastases
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 9-Aug-2011
Up to 50% of patients with colorectal cancer develop metastases of which half are isolated to the liver and 10% to 25% are eligible for resection. If all disease is removed these patients have a 30% to 50% chance of survival at five years. Treatment optio - Resection versus other treatments for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 24-Feb-2014
Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive cancer. Resection of the cancer is the only treatment with the potential to achieve long-term survival. However, a third of patients with pancreatic cancer have locally advanced cancer involving adjacent structures such - Resistance exercise training for fibromyalgia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Jul-2014
Fibromyalgia is characterized by chronic widespread pain that leads to reduced physical function. Exercise training is commonly recommended as a treatment for management of symptoms. We examined the literature on resistance training for individuals with f - Resorbable versus titanium plates for facial fractures
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-May-2018
Rigid internal fixation of the jaw bones is a routine procedure for the management of facial fractures. Titanium plates and screws are routinely used for this purpose. The limitations of this system has led to the development of plates manufactured from b - Resorbable versus titanium plates for orthognathic surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Nov-2017
Recognition of some of the limitations of titanium plates and screws used for the fixation of bones has led to the development of plates manufactured from bioresorbable materials. Whilst resorbable plates appear to offer clinical advantages over metal pla - Respiratory function monitoring to reduce mortality and morbidity in newborn infants receiving resuscitation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Jul-2010
A respiratory function monitor is routinely used in neonatal intensive care units to continuously measure and display airway pressures, tidal volume and leak during ventilation. During positive pressure ventilation in the delivery room, clinical signs are - Respiratory muscle training for cervical spinal cord injury
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Jan-2014
Cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) severely comprises respiratory function due to paralysis and impairment of the respiratory muscles. Various types of respiratory muscle training (RMT) to improve respiratory function for people with cervical SCI have been - Respiratory muscle training for cystic fibrosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Cystic fibrosis is the most common autosomal recessive disease in white populations, and causes respiratory dysfunction in the majority of individuals. Numerous types of respiratory muscle training to improve respiratory function and health-related qualit - Respiratory muscle training for multiple sclerosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Dec-2017
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease of the central nervous system, affecting approximately 2.5 million people worldwide. People with MS may experience limitations in muscular strength and endurance – including the respiratory muscles, affecting f - Respiratory muscle training in children and adults with neuromuscular disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Aug-2019
Neuromuscular diseases (NMDs) are a heterogeneous group of diseases affecting the anterior horn cell of spinal cord, neuromuscular junction, peripheral nerves and muscles. NMDs cause physical disability usually due to progressive loss of strength in limb
