Effect of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Programs on Perioperative Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Background: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programs emerged as a strategy to reduce perioperative morbidity; however, there is currently limited evidence of their clinical efficacy. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of ERAS programs in cardiac surgery on hospital length of stay, mortality, atrial fibrillation, and quality of life.

Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses statement, encompassing studies on ERAS programs in adult patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery.

Effect of Treatment With Balanced Crystalloids Versus Normal Saline on the Mortality of Critically Ill Patients With and Without Traumatic Brain Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background: Some studies suggest that balanced solutions may improve outcomes in critical care patients. However, in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) existing data indicate that normal saline may be preferred. We hypothesized that mortality in critically ill patients with and without TBI would differ with the use of balanced salt solutions versus normal saline.

Mortality of Spanish soccer referees and coaches: a retrospective cohort study.

There is evidence that elite soccer players live longer than general population, but there is no information on soccer coaches and referees. We aimed to analyze the longevity of both professionals, comparing them with soccer players and with general population. In this retrospective cohort study, a total of 328 male Spanish soccer coaches, 287 referees, and 1230 soccer players, all born before 1950, were divided in two cohorts, matched 2:1 with coaches and referees.

Mortality of Spanish Former Elite Soccer Players and Coaches.

We analyzed whether male Spanish elite soccer players live longer than the general population. Secondly, we compared their mortality with a cohort of soccer players who continued working as soccer elite coaches after retirement. Using age and calendar-date adjusted life tables, we analyzed the mortality hazard ratio of 1333 Spanish male players born before 1950, and who played in elite leagues from 1939, compared with the Spanish population.

[Effect of confinement during COVID-19 outbreak on sleep quality in Galicia.].

Objective: Stressful situations may have a negative effect on population's mental health, including impaired sleep quality. Thus, we analysed the effect on sleep during the confinement due to the COVID-19 outbreak, in a Galicia population sample, measuring subjective sleep satisfaction, and insomnia intensity and incidence.

Methods: Through an adapted questionnaire from the Cuestionario Oviedo de Sueño, distributed telematically and printed, using a convenience sampling in Galicia, we compared sleep situation, before and during the first two weeks of confinement for COVID-19.
