Journal ArticleDOI
The correct approach to modelling and evaluating chlamydia screening.
Tracy E Roberts,Suzanne Robinson,Pelham Barton,Stirling Bryan,Anne Marie McCarthy,John Macleod,Matthias Egger,Nicola Low +7 more
TL;DR: A recent systematic review of economic evaluations suggests that screening for genital chlamydia infection is “cost effective,” but how this conclusion was reached is concerned since the reviewers did not take into account the fact that Chlamydia trachomatis is infectious.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial was conducted to investigate whether antibiotic prophylaxis before surgery to complete a spontaneous abortion would reduce pelvic infection among women and adolescents in low-resource countries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Uterotonic Drugs for the Prevention of Postpartum Haemorrhage: A Cost‐Effectiveness Analysis
Karen Pickering,Ioannis D. Gallos,Helen Williams,Malcolm J Price,Abi Merriel,David Lissauer,Aurelio Tobias,G Justus Hofmeyr,G Justus Hofmeyr,Arri Coomarasamy,Tracy E Roberts +10 more
TL;DR: The results suggest carbetocin, oxytocin and ‘ergometrine plus Oxytocin’ could all be favourable options for being the most cost-effective strategy for preventing postpartum haemorrhage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cost-effectiveness of sentinel lymph node biopsy vs inguinofemoral lymphadenectomy in women with vulval cancer.
Andrew Sutton,Pelham Barton,S Sundar,Catherine Meads,Adam N. Rosenthal,P Baldwin,Khalid S. Khan,Tracy E Roberts +7 more
TL;DR: SLN biopsy using 99mTc and blue dye with ultrastaging may be considered the most cost-effective strategy based on the outcome of survival free of morbidity for 2 years, but findings here indicate that using blue dye and H&E for the identification of the SLN and the Identification of metastasis, respectively, are not sensitive enough to be used on their own.
Journal ArticleDOI
Economic evaluation of Faecal microbiota transplantation compared to antibiotics for the treatment of recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection.
TL;DR: Evaluating the cost effectiveness of FMT for rCDI using the latest and best evidence showed that FMT is a less costly and more effective treatment than either fidaxomicin or vancomycin.
