Article Synopsis
- Patients on maintenance dialysis have a higher mortality rate compared to the general population, and the study investigates the effects of ACE inhibitors (ACEIs) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) on mortality rates in these patients.
- The research included five observational studies with over 126,000 participants, showing no significant difference in all-cause or cardiovascular mortality between ACEIs and ARBs overall.
- However, ARBs were found to significantly lower cardiovascular mortality in patients undergoing hemodialysis, suggesting they may be more effective in this specific group.
Background: Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disorder in which genetically susceptible individuals cannot digest gluten (wheat) and its homologs such as Scalin (rye) and Hordein (barley).
Aim: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the measures of associations between CD and psychiatric disorders, specifically anxiety and depression, and explore the relationship between adherence to a Gluten-Free Diet (GFD) and the psychiatric aspects of the disease.
Methods: We searched PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science for articles investigating anxiety and depression in CD patients.
Purpose: Choosing the best stump closure method for laparoscopic appendectomy has been a debated issue, especially for patients with acute appendicitis. The lack of consensus in the literature and the diverse techniques available have prompted the need for a comprehensive evaluation to guide surgeons in selecting the most optimal appendiceal stump closure method.
Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted on multiple databases from inception until December 2023 to find relevant studies according to eligibility criteria.
Impact of SGLT2 Inhibitors on Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence after Catheter Ablation in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Meta-Analysis of Reconstructed Kaplan-Meier Curves with Trial Sequential Analysis.

Purpose: The role of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) in managing cardiovascular outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is evolving. This meta-analysis seeks to explore the influence of SGLT2i on the recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) following catheter ablation (CA) in individuals with T2DM qualitatively and quantitatively.
Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in electronic databases.
Insomnia, as a difficulty in initiating and maintaining sleep, coupled with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) increase the risk of aggravate daytime symptoms, mortality, and morbidity. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is thought to have a significant impact on insomnia treatment, but in patients with CVDs, there is a paucity of data. To provide a comprehensive appraisal on the impact of CBT on the treatment of insomnia in patients with CVDs.

Methods: A literature search was conducted for PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science from inception until August 2022. Documents were screened for qualified articles, and all concerned outcomes were pooled as risk ratios or mean difference (MD) in the meta-analysis models using Review Manager (RevMan version 5.
Perioperative pain management related to hip surgical procedures is challenging. Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block is a novel technique that is assumed to provide better analgesia in addition to its post-operative motor-sparing effect. In this review, we aim to assess the safety and efficacy of PENG block on pain management in patients undergoing hip surgeries.
