- Relaxin for cervical ripening and induction of labour
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Sep-2009
Relaxin is a protein hormone composed of two amino acid chains. The role played by relaxin in human pregnancy and parturition is unclear. Its use and involvement as a cervical ripening agent has been debated since the 1950s. Because the main source of hum - Reminder packaging for improving adherence to self-administered long-term medications
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 1-Nov-2011
Current methods of improving medication adherence for health problems are mostly complex, labour-intensive, and not reliably effective. Medication 'reminder packaging', which incorporates a date or time for a medication to be taken in the packaging, can a - Reminder systems for women with previous gestational diabetes mellitus to increase uptake of testing for type 2 diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Mar-2014
The early postpartum period is an important time in which to identify the risk of diabetes in women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Oral glucose tolerance and other tests can help guide lifestyle management and monitoring to reduce - Remote and web 2.0 interventions for promoting physical activity
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Sep-2013
Remote and web 2.0 interventions for promoting physical activity (PA) are becoming increasingly popular but their ability to achieve long term changes are unknown. - Remote ischaemic preconditioning for coronary artery bypass grafting (with or without valve surgery)
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-May-2017
Despite substantial improvements in myocardial preservation strategies, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is still associated with severe complications. It has been reported that remote ischaemic preconditioning (RIPC) reduces reperfusion injury in p - Remote ischaemic preconditioning versus no remote ischaemic preconditioning for vascular and endovascular surgical procedures
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Nov-2011
Despite advances in perioperative care, elective major vascular surgical procedures carry a significant risk of morbidity and mortality. Remote ischaemic preconditioning is initiated by brief, non-lethal periods of ischaemia in a vascular bed different fr - Renal denervation for resistant hypertension
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Feb-2017
Resistant hypertension is highly prevalent among the general hypertensive population and the clinical management of this condition remains problematic. Different approaches, including a more intensified antihypertensive therapy, lifestyle modifications, o - Repeat digital cervical assessment in pregnancy for identifying women at risk of preterm labour
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-May-2010
Repeat digital cervical assessment (RDCA - examination of the cervix with a finger) has been promoted as a routine intervention in the antenatal clinic as a screening test for the risk of preterm birth (that is, birth occurring before 37 weeks of gestatio - Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for panic disorder in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Sep-2014
Panic disorder (PD) is a common type of anxiety disorder, characterized by unexpected and repeated panic attacks or fear of future panic attacks, or both. Individuals with PD are often resistant to pharmacological or psychological treatments and this can - Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for improving function after stroke
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 24-Apr-2013
It had been assumed that suppressing the undamaged contralesional motor cortex by repetitive low-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) or increasing the excitability of the damaged hemisphere cortex by high-frequency rTMS will promote functio - 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 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 - 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 - 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
