** This review is awaiting update with a new protocol. The methods used for the review were acceptable when the review was published but do not meet contemporary standards, and the review is also considerably out of date. Therefore, readers should note th - Cholinesterase inhibitors for delirium
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Oct-2008
Delirium is now the preferred term to describe acute confusional states. It is experienced by 10 to 30% of all hospital inpatients. Delirium is potentially reversible and is related to several adverse outcomes, including increased hospital length of stay, - Cholinesterase inhibitors for dementia with Lewy bodies
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Apr-2008
Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) was first described in 1983, and clinical diagnostic criteria were published in the early to mid 1990s. It has been suggested DLB may account for up to 15-25% of cases of dementia among people aged over 65, although autopsy - Cholinesterase inhibitors for dementia with Lewy bodies, Parkinson's disease dementia and cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Jul-2014
Previous Cochrane reviews have considered the use of cholinesterase inhibitors in both Parkinson's disease with dementia (PDD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). The clinical features of DLB and PDD have much in common and are distinguished primarily on - Cholinesterase inhibitors for mild cognitive impairment
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Jul-2016
Mild cognitive impairment is hypothesised to represent a pre-clinical stage of dementia but forms a heterogeneous group with variable prognosis. - Cholinesterase inhibitors for Parkinson's disease dementia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-May-2008
The loss of cholinergic, dopaminergic and noradrenergic innervations seen in Parkinson's Disease Dementia (PDD) suggest a potential role for cholinesterase inhibitors. Concerns have been expressed about a theoretical worsening of Parkinson's disease relat - Cholinesterase inhibitors for rarer dementias associated with neurological conditions
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Feb-2015
Rarer dementias include Huntington's disease (HD), cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), dementia in multiple sclerosis (MS) and progressive supranuclear palsy - Cholinesterase inhibitors for the treatment of delirium in non-ICU settings
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Jun-2018
Delirium is a common clinical syndrome defined as alterations in attention with an additional disturbance in cognition or perception, which develop over a short period of time and tend to fluctuate during the course of the episode. Delirium is commonly tr - Cholinesterase inhibitors for vascular dementia and other vascular cognitive impairments: a network meta‐analysis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) describes a broad spectrum of cognitive impairments caused by cerebrovascular disease, ranging from mild cognitive impairment to dementia. There are currently no pharmacological treatments recommended for improving eith - Chondroitin for osteoarthritis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Apr-2016
Osteoarthritis, a common joint disorder, is one of the leading causes of disability. Chondroitin has emerged as a new treatment. Previous meta-analyses have shown contradictory results on the efficacy of chondroitin. This, in addition to the publication o - Chorion villus sampling versus amniocentesis for prenatal diagnosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Oct-2008
Amniocentesis test results are usually available only after 18 weeks gestation. Chorion villus sampling (CVS) may be performed transabdominally or transvaginally, usually between 10 and 12 weeks gestation. - Chromium picolinate supplementation for overweight or obese adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Nov-2013
Obesity is a global public health threat. Chromium picolinate (CrP) is advocated in the medical literature for the reduction of body weight, and preparations are sold as slimming aids in the USA and Europe, and on the Internet. - Chromoscopy versus conventional endoscopy for the detection of polyps in the colon and rectum
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Apr-2016
Although conventional colonoscopy is the most accurate test available for the investigation of the colorectum for polyps, data exist that raise concerns about its sensitivity. Chromoscopy (spraying dye onto the surface of the colon to make polyps more vis - Chronic disease management programmes for adults with asthma
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-May-2015
The burden of asthma on patients and healthcare systems is substantial. Interventions have been developed to overcome difficulties in asthma management. These include chronic disease management programmes, which are more than simple patient education, enc - Chronotherapy versus conventional statins therapy for the treatment of hyperlipidaemia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Nov-2016
Elevated levels of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein play an important role in the development of atheromas and, therefore, in cardiovascular diseases. Cholesterol biosynthesis follows a circadian rhythm and is principally produced at night (b - Chuanxiong preparations for preventing stroke
