Bilateral axillo-breast approach robotic thyroidectomy (BABA-RT) versus transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT): a systematic review and meta-analysis.

The aim of this study is to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of all comparative studies that evaluated the surgical outcomes between bilateral axillo-breast approach-robotic thyroidectomy (BABA-RT) and transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT). The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were screened until July 2022. The Risk of Bias in Non-Randomized Studies for Interventions (ROBINS-I) tool was used to evaluate study quality.

Dry versus wet temporalis fascia graft in type-I tympanoplasty: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Objectives: To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that examined the efficacy of dry versus wet temporalis fascia graft among patients undergoing type-I tympanoplasty.

Methods: Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, and CENTRAL databases were screened from inception until July 2022. The Cochrane risk of bias tool was used to assess the quality of included RCTs.
