The methods and results of systematic reviews should be reported in sufficient detail to allow users assess the trustworthiness applicability review findings. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement was developed facilitate transparent complete reporting has been updated (to PRISMA 2020) reflect recent advances methodology terminology.

Matthew Page and co-authors describe PRISMA 2020, an updated reporting guideline for systematic reviews meta-analyses.
In the era of evidence based medicine, with systematic reviews as its cornerstone, adequate quality assessment tools should be available. There is currently a lack systematically developed and evaluated tool for diagnostic accuracy studies. The aim this project was to combine empirical expert opinion in formal consensus method develop used assess primary studies accuracy. We conducted Delphi procedure by refining an initial list items. Members panel were experts area research. results three...

Incomplete reporting has been identified as a major source of avoidable waste in biomedical research. Essential information is often not provided study reports, impeding the identification, critical appraisal, and replication studies. To improve quality diagnostic accuracy studies, Standards for Reporting Diagnostic Accuracy (STARD) statement was developed. Here we present STARD 2015, an updated list 30 essential items that should be included every report study. This update incorporates...
Diagnostic accuracy studies are, like other clinical studies, at risk of bias due to shortcomings in design and conduct, the results a diagnostic study may not apply patient groups settings. Readers reports need be informed about sufficient detail judge trustworthiness applicability findings. The STARD statement (Standards for Reporting Accuracy Studies) was developed improve completeness transparency studies. contains list essential items that can used as checklist, by authors, reviewers...
The GRADE system can be used to grade the quality of evidence and strength recommendations for diagnostic tests or strategies. This article explains how patient-important outcomes are taken into account in this process

An intravenous course of standard (unfractionated) heparin with the dose adjusted to prolong activated partial-thromboplastin time a desired length is initial in-hospital treatment for patients deep-vein thrombosis, but fixed-dose subcutaneous low-molecular-weight appears be as effective and safe. Because latter can given on an outpatient basis, we compared two treatments in symptomatic outpatients proximal-vein thrombosis no signs pulmonary embolism.
More and more systematic reviews of diagnostic test accuracy studies are being published, but they can be methodologically challenging. In this paper, the authors present some recent developments in methodology for conducting studies. Restrictive electronic search filters discouraged, as is use summary quality scores. Methods meta-analysis should take into account paired nature estimates their dependence on threshold. Authors these advised to hierarchical receiver-operating characteristic or...

Deep-brain stimulation through an electrode implanted in the thalamus was developed as alternative to thalamotomy for treatment of drug-resistant tremor. Stimulation is thought be effective but have fewer complications. We examined effects these two procedures on functional abilities patients with tremor due Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, or multiple sclerosis.
