Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Jul-2015
Point-of-care (POC) tests for diagnosing schistosomiasis include tests based on circulating antigen detection and urine reagent strip tests. If they had sufficient diagnostic accuracy they could replace conventional microscopy as they provide a quicker an - Circulatory volume expansion therapy for aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Jul-2008
