TL;DR: Although this rating system represents discrete steps on an ordinal scale, it is helpful to view confidence in estimates as a continuum, and the final rating of confidence may differ from that suggested by separate consideration of each domain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stress ulcer prophylaxis in critically ill patients. Resolving discordant meta-analyses.

TL;DR: There is strong evidence of reduced clinically important gastrointestinal bleeding with histamine2-receptor antagonists and sucralfate may be as effective in reducing bleeding as gastric pH—altering drugs and is associated with lower rates of pneumonia and mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In comparison with internal fixation, arthroplasty for the treatment of a displaced femoral neck fracture significantly reduces the risk of revision surgery, at the cost of greater infection rates, blood loss, and operative time and possibly an increase in early mortality rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
GRADE guidelines: 12. Preparing summary of findings tables-binary outcomes.

TL;DR: Summary of Findings (SoF) tables present, for each of the seven most important outcomes, the following: the number of studies and number of participants; the confidence in effect estimates (quality of evidence); and the best estimates of relative and absolute effects.
