- Colloid solutions for fluid resuscitation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 14-Nov-2012
Colloids are widely used in the replacement of fluid volume. However, doubts remain as to which colloid is best. Different colloids vary in their molecular weight and therefore in the length of time they remain in the circulatory system. Because of this, - Colloids versus crystalloids for fluid resuscitation in critically ill people
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Aug-2018
Critically ill people may lose fluid because of serious conditions, infections (e.g. sepsis), trauma, or burns, and need additional fluids urgently to prevent dehydration or kidney failure. Colloid or crystalloid solutions may be used for this purpose. Cr - Colony stimulating factors (including erythropoietin, granulocyte colony stimulating factor and analogues) for stroke

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Jan-2014
Weight gain is often considered a side effect of combination hormonal contraceptives, and many women and clinicians believe that an association exists. Concern about weight gain can limit the use of this highly effective method of contraception by deterri - Combination fluticasone and salmeterol versus fixed dose combination budesonide and formoterol for chronic asthma in adults and children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Jul-2012

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Dec-2013
Asthma is characterised by chronic inflammation of the airways and recurrent exacerbations with wheezing, chest tightness and cough. Treatment with inhaled steroids and bronchodilators often results in good control of symptoms, prevention of further morbi - Combination formoterol and budesonide as maintenance and reliever therapy versus current best practice (including inhaled steroid maintenance), for chronic asthma in adults and children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Jul-2016
Traditionally inhaled treatment for asthma has used separate preventer and reliever therapies.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Apr-2013
Formoterol has a fast onset of action and can therefore be used to relieve symptoms of asthma. A combination inhaler can deliver formoterol with different doses of inhaled corticosteroid; when used as a reliever both drugs will be delivered more frequentl - Combination inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting beta2-agonists for children and adults with bronchiectasis
