Very happy to share that our Cochrane_IDG protocol on "Digital devices for tuberculosis treatment adherence" is now available open-access in the The Cochrane Library at cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.10… #tuberculosis #treatment #digitaladherencetechnologies

"Microclots" cause #longcovid? Cochrane review appraises laboratory studies. Concludes the particles are not clots, occur in people that are healthy or have other conditions. No justification for plasmapheresis on this count. Cochrane_IDG #MECFS cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.10…

Last year an investigation by ITV News & The BMJ questioned the evidence for claims that "microclots" caused long covid symptoms and the use of apheresis and anticoagulants to treat them itv.com/news/2022-07-1…. A newly published Cochrane review on this is damning 1/

Please give this important review a read! We found that the majority of evidence being used to justify plasmapheresis for the removal of "microclots" is at high risk of bias. The term "microclots" itself is inaccurate, and these particles are found in healthy controls too.

Sharing our new review on infection prevention and control measures for mpox tinyurl.com/yvbpzfuy A lack of studies investigating IPC measures for mpox meant an analysis of known cases of transmission was used to inform the Qs Thanks to Bec, Gordon H. Guyatt, Vittoria Lutje 💙🇮🇹🇺🇦, Susan Gould

New Cochrane_IDG #qualitative review assesses community views on active case finding programmes for #tuberculosis. The #systematicreview of 45 studies examined views and experiences of people in LMICs, and was supported by #READ-It consortium funded by FCDO Global Health Research #EndTB

🦟 New #Cochrane review on #Wolbachia for preventing dengue 🦟 This is an exciting dengue prevention strategy but more trials are needed to demonstrate whether these results can be replicated in other settings, as well as data on cost and acceptability
