Clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion for diabetes: systematic review and economic evaluation.

TL;DR: The clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of using CSII to treat diabetes and to update the previous assessment report by reviewing evidence that has emerged since the last appraisal, and to take account of developments in alternative therapies, in particular the long-acting analogue insulins.
Journal Article

The effectiveness of diagnostic tests for the assessment of shoulder pain due to soft tissue disorders

TL;DR: The results suggest that clinical examination by specialists can rule out the presence of a rotator cuff tear, and that either MRI or ultrasound could equally be used for detection of full-thickness rotators cuff tears, although ultrasound may be better at picking up partial tears.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effectiveness of diagnostic tests for the assessment of shoulder pain due to soft tissue disorders: a systematic review.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the evidence for the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of diagnostic imaging tests as an addition to clinical examination and patient history for the diagnosis of soft tissue shoulder disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical and cost-effectiveness of donepezil, rivastigmine and galantamine for Alzheimer's disease: a rapid and systematic review

TL;DR: Results suggest that donepezil is beneficial using global and cognitive outcome measures, and whether adjustments could be made to existing models to reflect the current situation in England and Wales.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical and cost-effectiveness of autologous chondrocyte implantation for cartilage defects in knee joints: systematic review and economic evaluation

TL;DR: Examining the current clinical and cost-effectiveness evidence on autologous cartilage transplantation found insufficient evidence at present to say that ACI is cost-effective compared with microfracture or mosaicplasty, and it is suggested that after ACI, it takes 2 years for full-thickness cartilage to be produced.
