Detection and Diagnostic Accuracy of Cardiac Arrhythmias Using Wearable Health Devices: A Systematic Review.

Photoplethysmography (PPG) is the wearable devices' most widely used technology for monitoring heart rate. The systematic review used the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) standards and guidelines. This systematic review seeks to establish the effects of wearable health devices on cardiac arrhythmias concerning their impact on the personalization of cardiac management, their refining effect on stroke prevention strategies, and their influence on research and preventive care of cardiac arrhythmias and their re-evaluation of the patient-physician relationship.

A Comparison Between Histology and Rapid Urease Test in the Diagnosis of Helicobacter Pylori in Gastric Biopsies: A Systematic Review.

 is a gram-negative aerobic pathogen that primarily colonizes the gastric mucosa. Peptic ulcer disease, atrophic gastritis, gastric cancer, and mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma have all been linked to chronic infection. Hence, it is critical to diagnose and treat it as early as possible.

The Correlation Between Otitis Media With Effusion and Adenoid Hypertrophy Among Pediatric ‎Patients: A Systematic Review‎.

Otitis media with effusion (OME) affects approximately 80% of children due to the middle ear being flooded with fluids, though with no microbial infection manifestations. Multiple issues can drive recurring pediatric OME, such as environment-based issues, previous medical issues, inherited vulnerability from family, contact time at childcare institutes, passive smoking, and more than three siblings together with atopy or allergic rhinitis. If OME is not promptly addressed, this could eventually result in hearing impairment or loss, with consequent negative repercussions on the child's communicative and behavioral patterns.

Accuracy of Ultrasonography vs. Elastography in Patients With Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: A Systematic Review.

Ultrasonography and elastography are the most widely used imaging modalities for diagnosing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. This study aimed to assess and compare the diagnostic accuracy in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease/non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. This systematic review was based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.

The Efficacy of Sitz Baths as Compared to Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy in Patients with Anal Fissures: A Systematic Review.

An anal fissure is a common condition that affects patients of all ages. Its clinical presentation is a sharp pain on defecation with or without blood. It is treated by conservative or surgical means.
