Background: For decades, poor treatment options and low-quality evidence plagued care for patients with rifampin-resistant tuberculosis. The advent of new drugs to treat tuberculosis and enhanced funding now permit randomized, controlled trials of shortened-duration, all-oral treatments for rifampin-resistant tuberculosis.
Methods: We conducted a phase 3, multinational, open-label, randomized, controlled noninferiority trial to compare standard therapy for treatment of fluoroquinolone-susceptible, rifampin-resistant tuberculosis with five 9-month oral regimens that included various combinations of bedaquiline (B), delamanid (D), linezolid (L), levofloxacin (Lfx) or moxifloxacin (M), clofazimine (C), and pyrazinamide (Z).
Pharmaco-Invasive Strategy Vs Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction in Latin America: A Meta-Analysis.
CJC Open
January 2025
Servicio de Cardiología, Hospital Universitario 12 de Octubre, Madrid, Spain.
Background: Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the established treatment for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), but often it is not readily available in low-resource settings. We assessed the safety and efficacy of the pharmaco-invasive strategy compared to primary PCI for STEMI in Latin America.
Methods: MEDLINE, Embase, and Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (LILACS) were searched for the period from their inception to September 2023, for studies that compared a pharmaco-invasive strategy vs primary PCI in Latin America.
Effects of Photobiomodulation on Burning Mouth Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
J Oral Rehabil
January 2025
Universidade Federal de São Paulo-Escola Paulista de Medicina-UNIFESP-EPM, São Paulo, Brazil.
Objective: The objective of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of photobiomodulation or low-level laser therapy on burning mouth syndrome compared to placebo, no-laser, clonazepam and alpha-lipoic acid.
Methods: A systematic review of randomised clinical trials was performed. The databases consulted were MEDLINE, CENTRAL, LILACS, EMBASE and clinical trial registries ClincalTrial.
Growth hormone improves the pregnancy outcomes in poor ovarian responders undergoing in vitro fertilization: an umbrella review.
J Assist Reprod Genet
January 2025
Evidence Based Medicine Center, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou, China.
Poor ovarian response (POR) significantly impacts the success of assisted reproductive technology (ART), and growth hormone (GH) has been proposed as an adjuvant treatment to improve outcomes in POR patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF). A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of GH in enhancing pregnancy outcomes, registering a protocol on PROSPERO and searching multiple databases up to September 2023. Twelve systematic reviews/meta-analysis and 20 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 1984 patients were included.

: Arytenoid dislocation (AD) and subluxation (AS) impact vocal fold mobility, potentially affecting the quality of life. Their management, including the timing and modality of treatment, remains a subject of research. Our primary objective was to assess and compare the available treatment strategies for AS and AD.
