Data were divided by type of study (randomized controlled trial, cohort trial, nonrandomized comparison, prospectively- and retrospectively-collected observational study). They were also divided by type of aneurysm treatment (microvascular - clipping, or endo-vascular - coiling). Additional predictive variables collected for each publication were average age, gender distribu-tion, measures of hemorrhage volume and subarachnoid hemorrhage severity, aneurysm locations, time to treat-ment, duration of follow-up and date of publication. Weemployed meta-analysis to calculate pooled risk ratios of developing hydrocephalus in cases receiving aneurysm clipping vs those receiving coiling. Meta-regression was used to correct pooled results for covariates.RESULTS: Because indications for the two treatments are different, there is little clinical equipoise for treat-ing most cases. The single randomized, controlled trial dealt with a small subset of ruptured aneurysms. Nei-ther this nor pooled values from other studies which compared the two treatments had the power to dem-onstrate signifcant differences between the two treat-ments. Nor was there an apparent difference when observational data were meta-analytically pooled. How-ever, when meta-regression was used to correct for predictive variables known to differ between the two treatment groups, a highly-significant difference ap-peared. Coiling is used more commonly in older, sicker patients with aneurysms in certain locations. These cases are more likely to develop hydrocephalus. When corrected for these covariates, the risk of hydrocepha-lus was found to be significantly lower in coiled vsclipped cases (P = 0.014).CONCLUSION: Pooled observational data were nec-essary to demonstrate that coiling ruptured cer展开更多

We undertook meta- regression to estimate calcium requirements for Chinese adults derived from calcium balance data in Chinese adults. Methods We searched PubMed, Cochrane CENTRAL, and SinoMed from inception to March 5, 2014, by using a structured search strategy. The bibliographies of any relevant papers and journals were also screened for potentially eligible studies. We extracted a standardized data set from studies in Chinese adults that reported calcium balance data. The relationship between calcium intake and output was examined by an individual participant data (IPD) and aggregate data (AD) meta-regression. Results We identified 11 metabolic studies in Chinese adults within 18-60 years of age. One hundred and forty-one IPD (n=35) expressed as mg/d, 127 IPD (n=32) expressed as mg.kg body wt-l-d-1, and 44 AD (n=132) expressed as mg/d were collected. The models predicted a neutral calcium balance (defined as calcium output (Y) equal to calcium intake (C)) at intakes of 460 mg/d (Y=0.60C+183.98) and 8.27 mg.kg body wt-l.d-1 (Y=0.60C+3.33) for IPD, or 409 mg/d (Y=0.66C+139.00) for AD. Calcium requirements at upper intakes were higher than that at lower intakes in all these models. Conclusion Calcium requirement for Chinese adults 18-60 years of age approximately ranges between 400 mg/d and 500 mg/d when consuming traditional plant-based Chinese diets.展开更多
