- Short‐term low‐dose corticosteroids vs placebo and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs in rheumatoid arthritis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Nov-2008
The effect of low dose corticosteroids, equivalent to 15 mg prednisolone daily or less, in patients with rheumatoid arthritis has been questioned. We reviewed the trials that compared corticosteroids with placebo or non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drugs. - Short‐term psychodynamic psychotherapies for common mental disorders
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Jun-2014
Since the mid-1970s, short-term psychodynamic psychotherapies (STPP) for a broad range of psychological and somatic disorders have been developed and studied. Early published meta-analyses of STPP, using different methods and samples, have yielded conflic - Short‐term treatment with proton pump inhibitors, H2‐receptor antagonists and prokinetics for gastro‐oesophageal reflux disease‐like symptoms and endoscopy negative reflux disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Apr-2013
Approximately 25% of adults regularly experience heartburn, a symptom of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD). Most patients are treated empirically (without specific diagnostic evaluation e.g. endoscopy. Among patients who have an upper endoscopy, fi - Shoulder replacement surgery for osteoarthritis and rotator cuff tear arthropathy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Apr-2020
Shoulder replacement surgery is an established treatment for patients with end-stage glenohumeral osteoarthritis or rotator cuff tear arthropathy who have not improved with non-operative treatment. Different types of shoulder replacement are commonly used - Shouldice technique versus other open techniques for inguinal hernia repair
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Aug-2012
Inguinal hernia repair is the most frequent operation in general surgery. There are several techniques: the Shouldice technique is sometimes considered the best method but different techniques are used as the "gold standard" for open hernia repair. Outcom - Shunting for normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH)
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Sep-2008
Since the condition was first described in 1965, the syndrome of normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) has conventionally been managed by placement of a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt. - Signs and symptoms to determine if a patient presenting in primary care or hospital outpatient settings has COVID‐19
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
The clinical implications of SARS-CoV-2 infection are highly variable. Some people with SARS-CoV-2 infection remain asymptomatic, whilst the infection can cause mild to moderate COVID-19 and COVID-19 pneumonia in others. This can lead to some people requi - Sildenafil citrate for erectile dysfunction in patients with multiple sclerosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Mar-2012
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common sexual disease in male patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Sildenafil citrate is considered as an effective drug in the treatment of male ED in the general population, but it has not been systematically reviewed in - Sildenafil for pulmonary hypertension in neonates
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Jan-2020
Persistent pulmonary hypertension in the neonate (PPHN) is associated with high mortality. Currently, the therapeutic mainstay for PPHN consists of assisted ventilation and administration of inhaled nitric oxide (iNO). However, nitric oxide is costly, and - Silicone gel sheeting for preventing and treating hypertrophic and keloid scars
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Sep-2013
Keloid and hypertrophic scars are common and are caused by a proliferation of dermal tissue following skin injury. They cause functional and psychological problems for patients, and their management can be difficult. The use of silicone gel sheeting to pr - Silicone gel sheeting for treating hypertrophic scars
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Each year, in high-income countries alone, approximately 100 million people develop scars. Excessive scarring can cause pruritus, pain, contractures, and cosmetic disfigurement, and can dramatically affect people's quality of life, both physically and psy - Silodosin for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Nov-2017
A variety of alpha-blockers are used for treating lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Silodosin is a novel, more selective alpha-blocker, which is specific to the lower urinary tract and may have fewer side - Silver acetate for smoking cessation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Aug-2012
Silver acetate produces an unpleasant taste when combined with cigarettes, thereby producing an aversive stimulus. It has been marketed in various forms with the aim of extinguishing the urge to smoke, by pairing the urge with an unpleasant stimulus. - Silver based wound dressings and topical agents for treating diabetic foot ulcers
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Jan-2011
Foot ulceration affects 15 to 20% of people with diabetes. It is a major precursor to amputation in this patient group, and early and appropriate treatment provides the greatest opportunity for healing. The use of silver for its antimicrobial properties h - Silver‐coated endotracheal tubes for prevention of ventilator‐associated pneumonia in critically ill patients
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Dec-2018
Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is one of the most common nosocomial infections in intubated and mechanically ventilated patients. Endotracheal tubes (ETTs) appear to be an independent risk factor for VAP. Silver-coated ETTs slowly release silver ca - Simple aspiration versus intercostal tube drainage for primary spontaneous pneumothorax in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Dec-2018
For management of pneumothorax that occurs without underlying lung disease, also referred to as primary spontaneous pneumothorax, simple aspiration is technically easier to perform than intercostal tube drainage. In this systematic review, we seek to comp - Simple behavioural interventions for nocturnal enuresis in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Jul-2013
Nocturnal enuresis (bedwetting) is a socially disruptive and stressful condition which affects around 15% to 20% of five year olds and up to 2% of adults.
