TL;DR: This relatively small meta-analysis found no substantial evidence of increased CHD risk in individuals with MTHFR 677CT and TT genotypes and further larger studies and well-defined phenotypic subcategory analyses are needed to decide whether the MTHfr 677C-->T polymorphism of the affected child and/or their mother is truly a risk factor for the development of CHDs.

TL;DR: Patients with proteinuria have higher TSH levels, consistent with urinary loss of thyroid hormones, however, these urinary losses do not result in overt, clinically relevant, hypothyroidism, and the role of subclinical hypothy thyroid function parameters in these patients needs further evaluation.

TL;DR: A Apolipoprotein B, non‐HDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol for identifying individuals at increased cardiovascular risk and the need for further studies are outlined.

TL;DR: Immediate multilayer compression bandaging in the acute phase of DVT is effective in reducing edema and complaints in the first week, but has no effect on thrombus regression, valve incompetence and the development of clinical PTS after 1 year.

TL;DR: The data demonstrate that the use of disembedded or separate versions of the questionnaire, together with variation in the case criteria can be a major explanation for variation in cut-off scores that was observed in previous studies.
