- Cervical preparation for first trimester surgical abortion
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Feb-2010
Preparing the cervix prior to surgical abortion is intended to make the procedure both easier and safer. Options for cervical preparation include osmotic dilators and pharmacologic agents. Many formulations and regimens are available, and recommendations - Cervical preparation for second trimester dilation and evacuation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Jun-2010
Abortion during the second trimester of pregnancy accounts for 10-15% of abortions performed worldwide. Dilation and evacuation (D&E) is the preferred method of second-trimester abortion in most parts of the developed world. Cervical preparation is recomm - Cervical ripening before first trimester surgical evacuation for non-viable pregnancy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Nov-2015
Medications or mechanical dilators are often used to soften and dilate the cervix prior to surgical evacuation of the uterus for non-viable pregnancy, or miscarriage. The majority of miscarriages occur in the first trimester. The aim of cervical ripening - Cervical stitch (cerclage) for preventing pregnancy loss in women
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Jan-2010
A cervical stitch has been used to prevent preterm deliveries in women with previous second trimester pregnancy losses, or other risk factors such as short cervix on digital or ultrasound examination. - Cervical stitch (cerclage) for preventing preterm birth in multiple pregnancy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Sep-2014
Cervical cerclage is a surgical intervention involving placing a stitch around the uterine cervix. The suture material aims to prevent cervical shortening and opening, thereby reducing the risk of preterm birth. The effectiveness and safety of this proced - Cervical stitch (cerclage) for preventing preterm birth in singleton pregnancy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Jun-2017
Cervical cerclage is a well-known surgical procedure carried out during pregnancy. It involves positioning of a suture (stitch) around the neck of the womb (cervix), aiming to give mechanical support to the cervix and thereby reduce risk of preterm birth. - Cervical stitch (cerclage) in combination with other treatments for preventing spontaneous preterm birth in singleton pregnancies
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Preterm birth (PTB) remains the foremost global cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Thus, the prevention of spontaneous PTB still remains of critical importance. In an attempt to prevent PTB in singleton pregnancies, cervical cerclage, in combinat - Cervico‐thoracic or lumbar sympathectomy for neuropathic pain and complex regional pain syndrome
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Apr-2020
This review is an update of a review first published in Issue 2, 2003, which was substantially updated in Issue 7, 2010. The concept that many neuropathic pain syndromes (traditionally this definition would include complex regional pain syndromes (CRPS)) - Cesarean delivery for the prevention of anal incontinence
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-May-2017
Caesarean delivery (CD) is a common form of delivery of a baby, rising in frequency. One reason for its performance is to preserve maternal pelvic floor function, part of which is anal continence. - Cessation of medication for people with schizophrenia already stable on chlorpromazine
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Dec-2013
Chlorpromazine, one of the first generation of antipsychotic drugs, is effective in the treatment of schizophrenia. For most people schizophrenia is a life-long disorder but about a quarter of those who have a first psychotic breakdown do not go on to exp - Chelation for autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Oct-2016
It has been suggested that the severity of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) symptoms is positively correlated with the level of circulating or stored toxic metals, and that excretion of these heavy metals, brought about by the use of pharmaceutical chelatin - Chelation therapy for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Chelation therapy is promoted and practiced around the world as a form of alternative medicine in the treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. It has been suggested as a safe, relatively inexpensive, non-surgical method of restoring blood flow - Chemical pleurodesis versus surgical intervention for persistent and recurrent pneumothoraces in cystic fibrosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Apr-2015
Pneumothorax is a potentially life-threatening complication for people with cystic fibrosis. Spontaneous pneumothorax is the presence of air in the pleural space and can be subdivided into first episode and recurrent. The recurrence of pneumothorax is whe - Chemoimmunotherapy versus chemotherapy for metastatic malignant melanoma
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Feb-2018
Malignant melanoma, one of the most aggressive of all skin cancers, is increasing in incidence throughout the world. Surgery remains the cornerstone of curative treatment in earlier stages. Metastatic disease is incurable in most affected people, because - Chemoradiation for advanced primary vulval cancer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Sep-2016
Vulval cancer is a rare gynaecological cancer. There is no standard approach for treating locally advanced primary vulval cancer (FIGO stage III and IV). Combined treatment modalities have been developed using radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery. The a - Chemoradiotherapy versus chemoradiotherapy plus surgery for esophageal cancer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 31-Jul-2017
Please see Appendix 4 for a glossary of terms. - Chemotherapy alone versus chemotherapy plus radiotherapy for adults with early stage Hodgkin lymphoma
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Apr-2017
Combined modality treatment consisting of chemotherapy followed by localised radiotherapy is the standard treatment for patients with early stage Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). However, due to long- term adverse effects such as secondary malignancies the role of - Chemotherapy alone versus endocrine therapy alone for metastatic breast cancer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Both chemotherapy and endocrine therapy can be used as treatments for metastatic breast cancer. - Chemotherapy and radiotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Mar-2018
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a highly lethal disease with few effective treatment options. Over the past few decades, many anti-cancer therapies have been tested in the locally advanced and metastatic setting, with mixed results. This review attempts to synt - Chemotherapy and radiotherapy for inoperable advanced pancreatic cancer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Aug-2009
Pancreatic cancer has a poor prognosis. The benefit of chemotherapy, radiotherapy or both as a palliative treatment of advanced or relapsed disease is uncertain.
