Non-surgical management in children with non-refluxing primary megaureter: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionsThe low pooled prevalence of secondary surgical intervention and high pooled prevalence of resolution may support the current non-surgical management in children with non-refluxing primary megaureter. However, these results should be interpreted cautiously due to the limited available body of evidence. Future studies should overcome existing limitations of imaging methods by using standardized, comparable criteria and report outcome parameters in a quantitative manner. This would allow more sufficient data synthesis to provide evidence-based recommendations for clinical decision-making and counseling.Systematic ...

Effect of robotic-assisted gait training on gait and motor function in spinal cord injury: a protocol of a systematic review with meta-analysis
Introduction
Robotic-assisted gait training (RAGT) has been reported to be effective in rehabilitating patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). However, studies on RAGT showed different results due to a varied number of samples. Thus, summarising studies based on robotic-related factors is critical for the accurate estimation of the effects of RAGT on SCI. This work aims to search for strong evidence showing that using RAGT is effective in treating SCI and analyse the deficiencies of current studies.
Methods and analysis
The following publication databases were electronically searched in December 2022 without restrictions ...

Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Defining what we mean by "polysubstance use."
Am J Drug Alcohol Abuse. 2023 Sep 21:1-7. doi: 10.1080/00952990.2023.2248360. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe rise in drug overdoses and harms associated with the use of more than one substance has led to increased use of the term "polysubstance use" among researchers, clinicians, and public health officials. However, the term retains no consistent definition across contexts.

Game-supported cognitive strategy training for slowed information processing speed after acquired brain injury: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial
This study aims to investigate the efficacy of a game-supported cognitive strategy training. The training combines a well-validated time pressure management cognitive strategy training, targeting slowed IPS, with a novel game and a mobile application. The game-supported training focuses on the generalisation of strategy-use to untrained tasks in everyday life.
Methods and analysis
The study is designed as a randomised controlled trial in which the experimental group (Karman Line — Tempo module: an 8-week game-supported cognitive strategy training) will be compared with an active control group (CogniPlus training: an...
