A meta-analysis research was executed to appraise the wound cosmesis problems and other postoperative problems of laparoscopic compared to open paediatric inguinal hernia (IH) repair. Inclusive literature research until March 2023 was done and 869 interconnected researches were revised. The 11 picked researches enclosed 3718 paediatric inguinal hernia were in the utilised researches' starting point, 1948 of them were utilising laparoscopic IH repairs, and 1770 were utilising open IH repairs. Odds ratios (ORs) in addition to 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were utilised to appraise the wound cosmesis problems and other postoperative problems of laparoscopic compared to open paediatric IH repairs by dichotomous approaches and a fixed or random model. Laparoscopic IH repairs had significantly lower wound cosmesis problems (OR, 0.29; 95% CI, 0.16-0.52, P < .001), metachronous contralateral inguinal hernia (MCIH) (OR, 0.11; 95% CI, 0.03-0.49, P = .003), recurrence (OR, 0.34; 95% CI, 0.34-0.99, P = .04) and postoperative problems (OR, 0.35; 95% CI, 0.17-0.73, P = .005), and higher wound score (OR, 12.80; 95% CI, 10.09-15.51, P < .001) compared to open paediatric IH. Laparoscopic IH repairs had significantly lower wound cosmesis problems, MCIH, recurrence, and postoperative problems, and a higher wound score compared to open paediatric IH. However, when interacting with its values, caution must be taken since much of the research had low sample sizes.
Background and Aim Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease that is difficult to treat and caused by dysfunction of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. Small molecules have been used to treat the symptom caused by CFTR mutations by restoring CFTR protein function. However, the data on children with CF are scarce. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of this therapy in children diagnosed with CF. Materials and Methods Relevant studies were identified through searching medical databases before April 1, 2022. The primary outcomes of ppFEV1, lung clearance index2.5 (LCI2.5), sweat chloride concentration (SwCI), and Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R) score were pooled and analyzed. The secondary outcomes were nutritional status (weight, BMI, stature, and their z-score) and adverse events under therapy. Results A total of twelve studies were included. Compared with the placebo group, the pooled outcome of the ppFEV1, LCI2.5, SwCI, and CFQ-R score were improved by 7.91 {[95% confidence interval (CI), 3.71–12.12], –1.00 (95% CI, –1.38 to –0.63), –35.22 (95% CI, –55.51 to –14.92), and 4.45 (95% CI, 2.31–6.59), respectively}. Compared with the placebo group, the pooled result of the change in weight was improved by 1.53 (95% CI, 0.42–2.63). All the aforementioned results were also improved in single-arm studies. No clear differences in adverse events were found between CFTR modulator therapy and the placebo group. Conclusion CFTR modulators could improve multiaspect function in children with CF and result in comparable adverse events.
Fetoscopic endoluminal tracheal occlusion (FETO) is considered to increase survival among fetuses with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Data from high-quality trials had been lacking until the largest randomized controlled trials (the TOTAL trials) were completed. This study aimed to elucidate the efficacy and safety of FETO for increasing the survival of fetuses with moderate or severe CDH. Relevant studies published before August 1st, 2021 were identified by searching PubMed, Cochrane Library and Web of Science. Only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) reporting patients who underwent FETO versus patients who received standard perinatal care were included in the analysis. The primary outcome was survival in the FETO and control groups. The secondary aim was to evaluate complications during pregnancy, such as premature rupture of membranes (PROM) and preterm delivery, and neonatal complications, including the need for supplemental oxygen at birth and discharge and pulmonary hypertension in the FETO and control groups. The Mantel–Haenszel random effects model was applied, and risk ratios (RRs) or odds ratios (ORs) were calculated. Four RCTs were eligible for inclusion. The quality of these studies was high. The pooled estimate of survival for fetuses with moderate or severe CDH was higher in the FETO group than in the control group [odds ratio (OR), 3.43; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.12–10.48; P = 0.03] with relatively strong evidence of between-study heterogeneity (I2 = 66%). Subgroup analysis revealed that in the severe CDH group, the pooled estimates of neonatal survival were significantly higher in the FETO group than in the control group (OR, 6.57; 95% CI, 1.39–31.06; P = 0.02). However, in the moderate CDH group, the pooled results of neonatal survival were only slightly higher in the FETO group than in the control group (OR, 1.65; 95% CI, 0.93–2.91; P = 0.08) and the difference was not significant. The risks of PROM and preterm delivery were both higher in the FETO group. No significant difference was found for the need for supplemental oxygen at birth and discharge or in pulmonary hypertension between the FETO group and matched controls. A limitation is that we were unable to calculate the effect of the second intervention on prematurity, which would have been meaningful for evaluating the risk of FETO for PROM or preterm delivery. FETO increases the survival rate in fetuses with moderate and severe CDH, especially in fetuses with severe CDH. However, FETO is associated with a higher risk of PROM and preterm delivery, and the optimal time of FETO should be carefully chosen.
Background. This study performed a meta-analysis to explore the clinical efficacy of creatine phosphate sodium (CPS) and/or vitamin C for viral myocarditis (VMC) in children, to provide guidance for its clinical treatment. Methods. A literature search was performed on PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang databases to obtain published clinical randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on CPS and/or vitamin C for VMC in children, with a time span from 2013 to 2022. Relevant data was extracted and meta-analysis was performed using the statistical software Stata 16.0. Results. A total of 723 studies were retrieved and 19 studies were finally included for meta-analysis, with a total of 1,957 patients. The meta-analysis results showed that the observation group (conventional treatment + CPS and/or vitamin C) was superior to the control group (conventional treatment alone) in treatment effective rate (OR = 3.60, 95% CI (2.55, 5.07), and P < 0.001). Additionally, the observation group had lower levels of cardiac troponin-I (SMD = − 2.63, 95% CI (− 3.51, − 1.76), and P < 0.001), creatine kinase isoenzyme (SMD = −2.78, 95% CI (− 3.53, − 2.03), and P < 0.001), lactate dehydrogenase (SMD = −1.95, 95% CI (− 2.49, − 1.42), and P < 0.001), aspartate aminotransferase (SMD = −0.87, 95% CI (− 1.84, 0.09), and P = 0.076), tumor necrosis factor- α (SMD = −3.90, 95% CI (− 4.47, − 3.06), and P < 0.001), and higher superoxide dismutase levels (SMD = 2.48, 95% CI (1.64, 3.33), and P < 0.001). Except aspartate aminotransferase, there were significant differences between the two groups in the other parameters. Conclusion. CPS and/or vitamin C treatment could greatly improve the treatment, protect myocardial function, and relieve inflammatory response in children with VMC.
Objective To explore the effect of improving the process of intravenous therapy using six Sigma methodology among hospitalized patients. Methods Select patients of a certain ward in our hospital as the objects. Used the steps of standard six Sigma methodology as define, measure, analyze, improve, and control.
