Journal ArticleDOI

Methadone and buprenorphine for the management of opioid dependence: a systematic review and economic evaluation.

TL;DR: Flexible dosing of MMT and BMT appears to be similarly effective whether delivered in a primary care or outpatient clinic setting, and in a direct comparison, MMT was found to be slightly more effective and less costly than BMT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Balloon kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty for vertebral compression fractures: a comparative systematic review of efficacy and safety.

TL;DR: There is Level III evidence to support balloon kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty as effective therapies in the management of patients with symptomatic osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures refractory to conventional medical therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Balloon kyphoplasty in the management of vertebral compression fractures: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis.

TL;DR: There are now prospective studies of low bias, with follow-up of 12 months or more, which demonstrate balloon kyphoplasty to be more effective than medical management of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures and as least as effective as vertebroplasty.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictors of health-related quality of life and costs in adults with epilepsy: a systematic review.

TL;DR: Identification of factors that are predictive of either reduced HRQoL or increased expenditure is central to the better future targeting and optimization of existing and emerging interventions and management strategies for epilepsy.
