Review Meta Analysis
Impact of pharmacological interventions on intrapulmonary shunt during one-lung ventilation in adult thoracic surgery: a systematic review and component network meta-analysis.
Intrapulmonary shunt is a major determinant of oxygenation in thoracic surgery under one-lung ventilation. We reviewed the effects of available treatments on shunt, Pao2/FiO2 and haemodynamics through systematic review and network meta-analysis. ⋯ PROSPERO CRD42022310313.

Review Meta Analysis
Needle-free pharmacological sedation techniques in paediatric patients for imaging procedures: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Sedation techniques and drugs are increasingly used in children undergoing imaging procedures. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we present an overview of literature concerning sedation of children aged 0-8 yr for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures using needle-free pharmacological techniques. ⋯ We found a large variation in medication, dosage, and route of administration for needle-free sedation. Success rates for sedation techniques varied between 36% and 98%.
