Background: Acute liver failure (ALF) poses a significant threat to patient health with high mortality rates. While Non-Bioartificial Artificial Liver Support system (NBALSS) has been utilized as a transitional intervention to liver transplant, its efficacy remains uncertain, It is also used as a last-line treatment for patients who are not candidates for liver transplantation.
Objective: The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate the efficacy of NBALSS in treating acute liver failure (ALF).

Background: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa) are commonly used in assisted reproduction technology (ART) cycles to prevent a luteinising hormone (LH) surge during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) prior to planned oocyte retrieval, thus optimising the chances of live birth. We compared the benefits and risks of the different GnRHa protocols used.
Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of different GnRHa protocols used as adjuncts to COH in women undergoing ART.

Introduction: Recent findings suggest that the four-variable Kidney Failure Risk Equation (KFRE) may be useful in predicting the likelihood of allograft failure in adult kidney transplant (KT) recipients. However, research on its application in pediatric patients is lacking. This study aimed to assess the accuracy of the four-variable KFRE for prediction of the two-year and five-year risk of allograft failure in a cohort of pediatric KT recipients.
