False-negative results of initial RT-PCR assays for COVID-19: A systematic review.

TL;DR: The findings reinforce the need for repeated testing in patients with suspicion of SARS-Cov-2 infection given that up to 54% of COVID-19 patients may have an initial false-negative RT-PCR (very low certainty of evidence).
Journal ArticleDOI

Growth factors for treating diabetic foot ulcers

TL;DR: The result is mainly based on platelet-derived wound healing formula, which increased the number of participants with complete wound healing and the cause of foot ulcer (neurologic, vascular, or combined) was poorly defined in all trials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
