- Biomarkers as point-of-care tests to guide prescription of antibiotics in patients with acute respiratory infections in primary care
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 3-Nov-2014
Acute respiratory infections (ARIs) are by far the most common reason for prescribing an antibiotic in primary care, even though the majority of ARIs are of viral or non-severe bacterial aetiology. Unnecessary antibiotic use will, in many cases, not be be - Biomarkers for diagnosis of Wilson's disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Nov-2019
Wilson's disease, first described by Samuel Wilson in 1912, is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder resulting from mutations in the ATP7B gene. The disease develops as a consequence of copper accumulating in affected tissues. - Biomedical risk assessment as an aid for smoking cessation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Mar-2019
A possible strategy for increasing smoking cessation rates could be to provide smokers with feedback on the current or potential future biomedical effects of smoking using, for example, measurement of exhaled carbon monoxide (CO), lung function, or geneti - Biophysical profile for fetal assessment in high risk pregnancies
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-Jan-2008
A biophysical profile (BPP) includes ultrasound monitoring of fetal movements, fetal tone and fetal breathing, ultrasound assessment of liquor volume with or without assessment of the fetal heart rate. The BPP is performed in an effort to identify babies - Biopsy versus resection for high‐grade glioma
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Jun-2019
This is an update of the original review published in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews Issue 1, 2000 and updated in 2003, 2007 and 2010. - Biopsy versus resection for the management of low‐grade gliomas

This is an updated version of the original Cochrane review published in 2013, Issue 4. - Biopsychosocial rehabilitation for upper limb repetitive strain injuries in working age adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Nov-2008
Upper limb repetitive strain injury is a common problem in western countries, causing human suffering and huge economical losses. Patients with prolonged pain associated with repetitive tasks in the work place can face both psychological and physical diff - Bioresorbable fixation devices for musculoskeletal injuries in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Nov-2008
Bioresorbable implants for musculoskeletal injuries involving bone and ligaments in adults might have significant advantages compared to the conventionally used non-resorbable metal implants because they lead to a gradual transfer of the mechanical load f - Biphasic versus monophasic oral contraceptives for contraception
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Jul-2006
Side effects caused by oral contraceptives discourage compliance with, and continuation of, oral contraceptives (OCs). Three approaches have been used to decrease these adverse effects: reduction of steroid dose, development of new steroids, and new formu - Biphasic versus monophasic waveforms for transthoracic defibrillation in out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Feb-2016
Transthoracic defibrillation is a potentially life-saving treatment for people with ventricular fibrillation (VF) and haemodynamically unstable ventricular tachycardia (VT). In recent years, biphasic waveforms have become more commonly used for defibrilla - Biphasic versus triphasic oral contraceptives for contraception
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Jul-2006
Side effects caused by oral contraceptives discourage compliance with, and continuation of, oral contraceptives. A suggested disadvantage of biphasic compared to triphasic oral contraceptive (OC) pills is an increase in breakthrough bleeding. We conducted - Bipolar versus monopolar transurethral resection of the prostate for lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to benign prostatic obstruction
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 3-Dec-2019
Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is a well-established surgical method for treatment of men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) secondary to benign prostatic obstruction (BPO). This has traditionally been provided as monopolar TURP (MTU - Birth and death notification via mobile devices: a mixed methods systematic review
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Jul-2021
Ministries of health, donors, and other decision-makers are exploring how they can use mobile technologies to acquire accurate and timely statistics on births and deaths. These stakeholders have called for evidence-based guidance on this topic. This revie - BIS monitoring versus clinical assessment for sedation in mechanically ventilated adults in the intensive care unit and its impact on clinical outcomes and resource utilization
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Feb-2018
Patients admitted to intensive care and on mechanical ventilation, are administered sedative and analgesic drugs to improve both their comfort and interaction with the ventilator. Optimizing sedation practice may reduce mortality, improve patient comfort - Bispectral index for improving intraoperative awareness and early postoperative recovery in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Sep-2019
The use of clinical signs, or end-tidal anaesthetic gas (ETAG), may not be reliable in measuring the hypnotic component of anaesthesia and may lead to either overdosage or underdosage resulting in adverse effects because of too deep or too light anaesthes - Bisphosphonate therapy for children and adolescents with secondary osteoporosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Oct-2007
Children with chronic illnesses are at increased risk for reductions in bone strength and subsequent fractures (osteoporosis), either due to the impact of the underlying condition on skeletal development or due to the osteotoxic effect of medications (e.g - Bisphosphonate therapy for osteogenesis imperfecta
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Oct-2016
Osteogenesis imperfecta is caused by a genetic defect resulting in an abnormal type I collagen bone matrix which typically results in multiple fractures with little or no trauma. Bisphosphonates are used in an attempt to increase bone mineral density and - Bisphosphonate use in children with cerebral palsy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Jul-2021
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a heterogeneous group of non-progressive disorders of posture or movement, caused by a lesion of the developing brain.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Oct-2017
Bone is the most common site of metastatic disease associated with breast cancer (BC).
