The three-cornered hat/Groslambert Covariance (GCov) methods are widely used to estimate the stability of each individual clock in a set of three, but no method gives reliable confidence intervals for large integration times. We propose a new KLTS (Karhunen-Loève Tansform using Sufficient statistics) method which uses these estimators to consider the statistics of all the measurements between the pairs of clocks in a Bayesian way. The resulting cumulative density function (CDF) yields confidence intervals for each clock Allan variance (AVAR). This CDF provides also a stability estimator that is always positive. Checked by massive Monte Carlo simulations, KLTS proves to be perfectly reliable even for one degree of freedom. An example of experimental measurement is given.

Background: Recent studies suggest that duloxetine administration before non-laparoscopic surgery may reduce postoperative pain and analgesic requirement without increasing adverse event occurrence.

Aim: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on preoperative administration of duloxetine versus placebo for postoperative pain relief in adults undergoing laparoscopic surgery, assessing efficacy- and safety-related outcomes.

Method: We systematically searched MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library, covering all records up to July 19, 2024.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a chronic liver disorder closely linked to metabolic syndrome. Identifying novel, easily measurable biomarkers could significantly enhance the diagnosis and management of NAFLD in clinical settings. Recent studies suggest that immunoinflammatory biomarkers-specifically, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR)-may offer diagnostic value for NAFLD.

At present, the choice of approach for the surgical treatment of cervical ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) remains controversial. We performed this meta-analysis to compare the efficacy of the anterior and posterior approaches in the treatment of cervical OPLL. PubMed, EMBASE and the Cochrane Library were systematically searched for all eligible articles as of August 3, 2023, without any publication date restrictions.

Objective: Abnormal levels and imbalances of T cell subsets are common in recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) patients, but most studies have small sample sizes, and comprehensive evaluations are lacking. Therefore, this meta-analysis aimed to comprehensively investigate T cell subsets and their ratios in RSA patients.

Methods: Four databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases) were searched until 10 January 2024.
