Review: Implant-Based Breast Reconstruction After Mastectomy for Breast Cancer: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials and Prospective Studies Comparing Use of Acellular Dermal Matrix (ADM) Versus Without ADM.

Background: Breast cancer is the world's most prevalent cancer, and many breast cancer patients undergo mastectomy as the choice of treatment, often with post-mastectomy breast reconstruction. Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) use has become a method to improve outcomes of reconstruction for these patients. We aimed to compare postoperative complications and patient-reported outcomes, which are still poorly characterized, between groups utilizing acellular dermal matrix during reconstruction and those without.

Global prevalence of basic life support training: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background And Aims: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest exerts a large disease burden, which may be mitigated by bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation and automated external defibrillation. We aimed to estimate the global prevalence and distribution of bystander training among laypersons, which are poorly understood, and to identify their determinants.

Methods: We searched electronic databases for cross-sectional studies reporting the prevalence of bystander training from representative population samples.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants vs vitamin K antagonists after transcatheter aortic valve replacement in patients with atrial fibrillation.

Purpose: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly carried out in patients with aortic valvular conditions. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common comorbidity among patients undergoing TAVR. Despite this, there remains a paucity of data and established guidelines regarding anticoagulation use post-TAVR in patients with AF.
