BACKGROUND: Native coarctation of the aorta (CoA) accounts for 6-8% of congenital heart defects and poses significant morbidity and mortality risks if untreated. By incorporating the most recent evidence, focusing on the pediatric population, this protocol outlines the planned approach for a systematic review and meta-…
Tang Xiaoyu, Trinquart Ludovic·Clinical trials (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Valid surrogate endpoints are of great interest for efficient evaluation of novel therapies. With surrogate and true time-to-event endpoints, meta-analytic approaches for surrogacy validation commonly rely on the hazard ratio, ignore that randomized trials possibly contribute to the meta-analysis for differ…
Kang Enoch, Hodges James S, Chuang Yu-Chieh, +3 more·BMC medical research methodology
BACKGROUND: Trial sequential methods have been introduced to address issues related to increased likelihood of incorrectly rejecting the null hypothesis in meta-analyses due to repeated significance testing. Between-study variance (τ) and its estimate () play a crucial role in both meta-analysis and trial sequent…

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition. Omega-3 fatty acid insufficiency has been linked to ASD. This umbrella meta-analysis was performed to investigate the effects of omega-3 supplementation on clinical manifestations in participants with ASD. Based on the PRISMA statement, databases includi…

BACKGROUND: A Generalized Linear Mixed Model (GLMM) is recommended to meta-analyze diagnostic test accuracy studies (DTAs) based on aggregate or individual participant data. Since a GLMM does not have a closed-form likelihood function or parameter solutions, computational methods are conventionally used to approximate…

BACKGROUND: There is evidence in the literature suggesting that high time spent in sedentary behavior (SB) can reduce the Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) levels, an important neurotrophin that plays a role in modulating cognition, learning and memory. Children and adolescents usually spend many hours a day on…

BACKGROUND: Preterm birth is a significant contributor to newborns morbidity and mortality. Despite the availability of highly effective and powerful interventions, the burden of preterm birth has not decreased. Given the relevance of the topic to clinical decision-making, strong conclusive and supporting evidence…

BACKGROUND: Heterogeneity in diagnostic criteria and provocation protocols has posed challenges in understanding the safety of coronary provocation testing with intracoronary acetylcholine (ACh) for the contemporary diagnosis of epicardial and microvascular spasm. OBJECTIVES: We examined the safety of testing and subg…

BACKGROUND: A suboptimal meta-analysis with misleading conclusions, frequently published in the healthcare journals, can compromise decision making in clinical practice. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the reporting quality, methodological quality, and risk of bias of meta-analyses of pharmacy services. METHODS: Systematic se…
Turner Rebecca M, Rhodes Kirsty M, Jones Hayley E, +10 more·Journal of clinical epidemiology
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Randomized trials included in meta-analyses are often affected by bias caused by methodological flaws or limitations, but the degree of bias is unknown. Two proposed methods adjust the trial results for bias using empirical evidence from published meta-epidemiological studies or expert opinion…

Investigating the contribution of biology to human cognition has assumed a bottom-up causal cascade where genes influence brain systems that activate, communicate, and ultimately drive behavior. Yet few studies have directly tested whether cognitive traits with overlapping genetic underpinnings also rely on overlapping…

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was (1) to perform a summary of meta-analyses comparing platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection with hyaluronic acid (HA) and placebo injection for KOA patients, (2) to determine which meta-analysis provides the best available evidence to making proposals for the use of PRP in the trea…
