Risk of cardiovascular comorbidity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Journal ArticleDOI

Overall and cause-specific mortality in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: a meta-analysis of observational studies.

TL;DR: To determine the magnitude of risk from all‐cause and cause‐specific mortality in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) compared to the general population through a meta‐analysis of observational studies, a large number of studies were analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mortality in ANCA-associated vasculitis: ameta-analysis of observational studies.

TL;DR: There is a 2.7-fold increased risk of death in patients with AAV when compared with the general population through a meta-analysis of observational studies, according to weighted-pooled summary estimates of SMRs for all-cause mortality.

Cognitive Impairment in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Chronic Heart Failure: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Observational Studies
