Pre‐Extubation Low‐Dose Propofol in Pediatric Ear, Nose, and Throat Procedures: A Meta‐Analysis With Trial Sequential Analysis

open access: yesPediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Post‐extubation emergence agitation (EA) is common in pediatric ear, nose, and throat (ENT) procedures and may lead to serious complications. Aims To assess the efficacy of low‐dose propofol administered before extubation, compared with placebo, for preventing EA, using meta‐analysis with trial sequential analysis (TSA).

Timing for Radiotherapy Initiation After Dental Extraction and Risk of Osteoradionecrosis in Head and Neck Cancer Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck cancer (HNC) patients are advised to undergo dental extraction of teeth with poor prognosis prior to radiotherapy (RT) initiation to prevent osteoradionecrosis (ORN). However, insufficient healing time may result in persistent extraction wounds during RT, which constitute a potential risk factor for ORN, whereas ...

Association Between Lateral Placenta and Adverse Maternal and Perinatal Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesBJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes such as preeclampsia, small‐for‐gestational age (SGA) and preterm birth remain major global health concerns. Beyond known high‐risk placental features, emerging evidence suggests lateral placenta to be associated with impaired uteroplacental blood flow resulting in placenta dysfunction and ...

Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel tests for the completely randomised design

open access: yes
When data for a completely randomised design are categorical rather than continuous, the Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel suite of tests may be applied, albeit that there is only one stratum.

zt: A Sofware Tool for Simple and Partial Mantel Tests [PDF]

open access: yes
Different methods of data analysis (e.g. clustering and ordination) are based on distance matrices. In some cases, researchers may wish to compare several distance matrices with one another in order to test a hypothesis concerning a possible relationship

Nimotuzumab Combined With Chemoradiotherapy in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
This meta‐analysis of 18 studies (3962 patients) demonstrates that nimotuzumab combined with chemoradiotherapy significantly improves overall survival and progression‐free survival in locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, without increasing severe toxicity.

Unconditional analogues of Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel tests

open access: yes
The Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel tests are a suite of tests that are usually defined as conditional tests, tests that assume all marginal totals are known before sighting the data.

A Bayesian fixed effects analysis of the Mantel-Haenszel model applied to meta-analysis

open access: yes, 2002
When performing a meta analysis, it is often necessary to combine results from several 2 x 2 contingency tables. The Mantel-Haenszel model assumes a common measure of association between the treatment and outcome variables across the tables.
