Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) is a procedure that involves devising an opening in the third ventricle floor, allowing cerebrospinal fluid to flow into the prepontine cistern and the subarachnoid space. Third ventricular floor bowing (TVFB) serves as an indicator of intraventricular obstruction in hydrocephalus and existence of pressure gradient across third ventricular floor, which is the prerequisite of a successful ETV. OBJECTIVE In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we aimed to synthesize the latest evidence on the TVFB as a marker for surgical success in patients undergoing ETV. MATERIAL AND METHODS We performed a comprehensive search on topics that assesses the association of TVFB with the surgical success in patients undergoing ETV from several electronic databases. RESULTS There was a total of 568 subjects from six studies. TVFB was associated with 85% (81-88%) ETV success. TVFB was associated with OR 4.13 [2.59, 6.60], P < 0.001; I2: 6% for ETV success. Subgroup analysis on pediatric patients showed 86% (82-91%) success rate. In terms of value for ETV success compared to ETV Success Score (ETVSS), a high ETVSS does not significantly differ (P = 0.31) from TVFB and TVFB was associated with OR 3.14 [1.72, 5.73], P < 0.001; I2: 69% compared to intermediate/moderate ETVSS. Funnel plot analysis showed an asymmetrical funnel plot due to the presence of an outlier. Upon sensitivity analysis by removing the outlier, the OR was 3.62 [2.22, 5.89], P < 0.001; I2: 0% for successful surgery in TVFB. CONCLUSIONS TVFB was associated with an increased rate of successful surgery in adults and children undergoing ETV.

Abstract
Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate whether dyslipidemia affects the mortality and severity of COVID-19, we also aimed to evaluate whether other comorbidities influence the association. Methods: A systematic literature search using PubMed, Embase, and EuropePMC was performed on 8 October 2020. This study’s main outcome is a poor composite outcome, comprising of mortality and severe COVID-19. Results: There were 9 studies with 3663 patients. The prevalence of dyslipidemia in this pooled analysis was 18% (4%-32%). Dyslipidemia was associated with increased composite poor outcome (RR 1.39 [1.02, 1.88], P = .010; I2: 56.7%, P = .018). Subgroup analysis showed that dyslipidemia was associated with severe COVID-19 (RR 1.39 [1.03, 1.87], P = .008; I2: 57.4%, P = .029). Meta-regression showed that the association between dyslipidemia and poor outcome varies by age (coefficient: −0.04, P = .033), male gender (coefficient: −0.03, P = .042), and hypertension (coefficient: −0.02, P = .033), but not diabetes (coefficient: −0.24, P = .135) and cardiovascular diseases (coefficient: −0.01, P = .506). Inverted funnel-plot was relatively symmetrical. Egger’s test indicates that the pooled analysis was not statistically significant for small-study effects (P = .206). Conclusion: Dyslipidemia potentially increases mortality and severity of COVID-19. The association was stronger in patients with older age, male, and hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to synthesize the latest evidence on the efficacy and safety of decompression alone compared to decompression with fusion in patients with lumbar spondylolisthesis. We also aimed to evaluate factors affecting the efficacy and complications. METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, Europe PMC, Cochrane Central Database, and ClinicalTrials.gov. The main outcome was improvement in Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). The secondary outcome was back pain and leg pain improvement, complications, reoperation rate, duration of surgery, length of hospital stay, and blood loss. RESULTS There were 3993 patients from 13 studies. Decompression with fusion was associated with greater reduction in ODI (mean difference 4.04 [95% CI 0.95, 7.13], P = 0.01) compared to decompression alone. Greater reduction in back (standardized mean difference [SMD] 0.27 [95% CI 0.00, 0.53], P = 0.05) and leg pain (SMD 0.13 [95% CI 0.06, 0.21], P < 0.001) was observed in the decompression with fusion group. Complications were similar in the 2 groups (OR 0.60 [95% CI 0.34, 1.04], P = 0.07). The reoperation rate was similar in both groups (P = 0.54). Decompression alone resulted in shorter duration of surgery (mean difference -85.18 minutes [95% CI -122.79, -47.57], P < 0.001), less blood loss (mean difference -262.65 mL [95% CI -313.45, -211.85], P < 0.001), and shorter hospital stay (mean difference -2.64 days [95% CI -3.58, -1.70], P < 0.001). Empirical Bayes random-effects meta-regression showed that the rate of complication was influenced by age (coefficient 0.172, P = 0.004). CONCLUSION Decompression with fusion had greater efficacy than decompression alone but was associated with more blood loss, lengthier surgery, and hospitalization. In terms of complications, decompression alone may be beneficial in younger patients. (PROSPERO CRD42020211904) LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 2A.

Abstract
Objective: This meta-analysis aims to assess whether elevated De Ritis ratio is associated with poor prognosis in patients with coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19). Methods: A systematic literature search was performed using PubMed, Embase, and EuropePMC databases up until September 17, 2021. De Ritis ratio is also known as Aspartate aminotransferase/alanine transaminase (AST/ALT) ratio. The main outcome was poor prognosis, a composite of mortality, severity, the need for ICU care, and intubation. The effect measure was odds ratios (ORs) and mean differences. We generated sensitivity and specificity, negative and positive likelihood ratio (NLR and PLR), diagnostic odds ratio (DOR), and area under curve (AUC). Results: There were eight studies with 4,606 patients. De Ritis ratio was elevated in 44% of the patients. Patients with poor prognosis have higher De Ritis ratio [mean difference 0.41 (0.31, 0.50), p < 0.001; I 2: 81.0%] and subgroup analysis showed that non-survivors also have higher De Ritis Ratio [mean difference 0.47 (0.46, 0.48), p < 0.001; I 2: 0%]. Elevated De Ritis ratio was associated with poor prognosis [OR 3.28 (2.39, 4.52), p < 0.001; I 2: 35.8%]. It has a sensitivity of 55% (36-73), specificity of 71% (52-85), PLR 1.9, NLR.63, DOR of 3 (2-4), and AUC of.67 (0.63-0.71). The posterior probability of poor prognosis was 38% if De Ritis is elevated, while 17% if De Ritis is not elevated. Conclusion: Elevated De Ritis ratio is associated with poor prognosis in patients with COVID-19. Systematic Review Registration: PROSPERO ID: CRD42020216634.

Abstract
ABSTARCT AIMS: We aimed to assess the dose-response relationship between triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS We performed a comprehensive systematic literature search using PubMed, Scopus, and Embase for records published from inception until 9 February 2021. The effect estimates were reported as relative risks (RRs). RESULTS 270,229 subjects from 14 studies were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. The pooled incidence of T2DM was 9%. Meta-regression analysis indicates that baseline age (coefficient: 0.67, p = 0.026), drinking (coefficient: 0.03, p = 0.035), and HDL (coefficient: -0.89, p = 0.035) affected the incidence of T2DM in future. High TyG index was associated with increased incidence of T2DM in pooled unadjusted (RR 4.68 [3.01, 7.29], p < 0.001; I2: 96.6%) and adjusted model (adjusted RR 3.54 [2.75, 4.54], p < 0.001; I2: 83.7%). Dose-response meta-analysis for the adjusted RR showed that the linear association analysis was not significant per 0.1 increase in TyG index (RR 1.01 [0.99, 1.03], p = 0.223). There is a non-linear trend (p < 0.001) for the association between TyG index and incidence of T2DM. The dose-response curve became increasingly steeper at TyG index above 8.6. CONCLUSIONS TyG index was associated with the incidence of T2DM in a non-linear fashion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent evidence showed that the characteristics and outcome of those with de novo heart failure (HF) and acutely decompensated chronic heart failure (ADCHF) were different. We aimed to perform a comprehensive search on the clinical characteristics and outcome of patients with de novo HF and ADCHF. METHODS We performed a comprehensive search on de novo/new onset acute HF vs ADCHF from inception up until December 2019. RESULTS There were 38320 patients from 15 studies. De novo HF were younger and, had less prevalent hypertension, diabetes mellitus, ischaemic heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, atrial fibrillation, and history of stroke/transient ischaemic attack compared to ADCHF. Five studies showed a lower NT-proBNP in de novo HF patients, while one study showed no difference. Valvular heart disease as aetiology of heart failure was less frequent in de novo HF, and upon sensitivity analysis, hypertensive heart disease was more frequent in de novo HF. As for precipitating factors, ACS (OR 2.42; I2:89%) was more frequently seen in de novo HF, whereas infection was less frequently (OR 0.69; I2:32%) in ADCHF. De novo HF was associated with a significantly lower 3-month mortality (OR 0.63; I2:91%) and 1-year (OR 0.59; I2:59%) mortality. Meta-regression showed that 1-year mortality did not significantly vary with age (p = .106), baseline ejection fraction (p = .703), or HF reduced ejection fraction (p = .262). CONCLUSION Risk factors, aetiology, and precipitating factors of HF in de novo and ADCHF differ. De novo HF also had lower 1-year mortality and 3-month mortality compared to ADCHF.

Abstract
Purpose: We aimed to perform a systematic literature search on the latest evidence of the role of statin in reducing diabetic retinopathy and its need for intervention. Methods: A comprehensive search on cohort studies/clinical trials that assess statins and diabetic retinopathy up until August 2019 was performed. The outcome measured was the incidence of diabetic retinopathy and its need for intervention. Results: There were 558.177 patients from six studies. Statin was associated with a lower incidence of diabetic retinopathy (hazard ratio: 0.68 (0.55, 0.84), p < 0.001; I2: 95%). For the subtypes of diabetic retinopathy, statin lowers the incidence of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (hazard ratio: 0.69 (0.51, 0.93), p = 0.01; I2: 90%), non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (hazard ratio: 0.80 (0.66, 0.96), p = 0.02; I2: 93%), and diabetic macular edema (hazard ratio: 0.56 (0.39, 0.80), p = 0.002; I2: 82%). Statin was associated with a reduced need for retinal laser treatment with a hazard ratio of 0.70 (0.64, 0.76) (p < 0.001; I2: 0%), intravitreal injection with a hazard ratio of 0.82 (0.79, 0.85) (p < 0.001; I2: 0%), and vitrectomy with a hazard ratio of 0.64 (0.48, 0.85) (p < 0.001; I2: 75%). Overall, statin was associated with a reduced need for intervention for diabetic retinopathy with a hazard ratio of 0.72 (0.64, 0.80) (p < 0.001; I2: 73%). The regression-based Egger’s test showed statistically significant small-study effects for non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (p = 0.011) outcomes. Conclusion: Statin was associated with a decreased risk of diabetic retinopathy and its subtypes. Statin also reduced the need for intervention with retinal laser treatment, intravitreal injection, and vitrectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Body mass index (BMI) has previously been shown to increase mortality and disease severity in patients with COVID-19, but the pooled effect estimate was heterogeneous. Although BMI is widely used as an indicator, it cannot distinguish visceral from subcutaneous fat. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the association between visceral adiposity, subcutaneous fat, and severe COVID-19. METHODS We performed a systematic literature search using the databases: PubMed, Embase, and EuropePMC. Data on visceral fat area (VTA), subcutaneous fat area (SFA), and total fat area (TFA) were collected. The outcome of interest was severe COVID-19. We used a REML random-effects model to pool the mean differences and odds ratio (OR). RESULTS There were 5 studies comprising of 539 patients. Patients with severe COVID-19 have a higher VTA (mean difference 41.7 cm2 [27.0, 56.4], p < 0.001; I2: 0%) and TFA (mean difference 64.6 cm2 [26.2, 103.1], p = 0.001; I2: 0%). There was no significant difference in terms of SFA between patients with severe and non-severe COVID-19 (mean difference 9.3 cm2 [-4.9, 23.4], p = 0.199; I2: 1.2%). Pooled ORs showed that VTA was associated with severe COVID-19 (OR 1.9 [1.1, 2.2], p = 0.002; I2: 49.3%). CONCLUSION Visceral adiposity was associated with increased COVID-19 severity, while subcutaneous adiposity was not. PROSPERO ID CRD42020215876.

Abstract
Introduction: Older adults are indisputably struck hard by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The main objective of this meta-analysis is to establish the association between delirium and mortality in older adults with COVID-19. Methods: Systematic literature searches of PubMed, Embase, and Scopus databases were performed up until 28 November 2020. The exposure in this study was the diagnosis of delirium using clinically validated criteria. Delirium might be in-hospital, at admission, or both. The main outcome was mortality defined as clinically validated non-survivor/death. The effect estimates were reported as odds ratios (ORs) and adjusted odds ratios (aORs). Results: A total of 3,868 patients from 9 studies were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. The percentage of patients with delirium was 27% [20%, 34%]. Every 1 mg/L increase in CRP was significantly associated with 1% increased delirium risk (OR 1.01 [1.00. 1.02], p=0.033). Delirium was associated with mortality (OR 2.39 [1.64, 3.49], p<0.001; I2: 82.88%). Subgroup analysis on delirium assessed at admission indicate independent association (OR 2.12 [1.39, 3.25], p<0.001; I2: 82.67%). Pooled adjusted analysis indicated that delirium was independently associated with mortality (aOR 1.50 [1.16, 1.94], p=0.002; I2: 31.02%). Subgroup analysis on delirium assessed at admission indicate independent association (OR 1.40 [1.03, 1.90], p=0.030; I2: 35.19%). Meta-regression indicates that the association between delirium and mortality were not significantly influenced by study-level variations in age, sex [reference: male], hypertension, diabetes, and dementia. Conclusion: The presence of delirium is associated with increased risk of mortality in hospitalized older adults with COVID-19.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate whether dyslipidemia affects the mortality and severity of COVID-19, we also aimed to evaluate whether other comorbidities influence the association. METHODS A systematic literature search using PubMed, Embase, and EuropePMC was performed on 8 October 2020. This study's main outcome is a poor composite outcome, comprising of mortality and severe COVID-19. RESULTS There were 9 studies with 3,663 patients. The prevalence of dyslipidemia in this pooled analysis was 18% (4%-32%). Dyslipidemia was associated with increased composite poor outcome (RR 1.39 [1.02, 1.88], p=0.010; I2: 56.7%, p=0.018). Subgroup analysis showed that dyslipidemia was associated with severe COVID-19 (RR 1.39 [1.03, 1.87], p=0.008; I2: 57.4%, p=0.029). Meta-regression showed that the association between dyslipidemia and poor outcome varies by age (coefficient: -0.04, p=0.033), male gender (coefficient: -0.03, p=0.042), and hypertension (coefficient: -0.02, p=0.033), but not diabetes (coefficient: -0.24, p=0.135) and cardiovascular diseases (coefficient: -0.01, p=0.506). Inverted funnel-plot was relatively symmetrical. Egger's test indicates that the pooled analysis was not statistically significant for small-study effects (p=0.206). CONCLUSION Dyslipidemia potentially increases mortality and severity of COVID-19. The association was stronger in patients with older age, male, and hypertension.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed to compare the minimally invasive surgery (MIS) instrumented fusion ± decompression versus conventional open surgery (COS) instrumented fusion ± decompression for the treatment of spinal metastases. METHODS We performed a systematic literature search through PubMed, Scopus, Europe PMC (PubMed Central), and Cochrane Central Database using the keywords "minimal invasive surgery" OR "minimally invasive surgery" OR "mini-open" AND "conventional open surgery" OR "traditional open surgery" OR "open surgery" AND "spinal metastasis". The outcomes of interest were complications, neurologic improvement, length of stay, intraoperative blood loss, transfusion rate, and operative duration. RESULTS There were a total of 8 studies comprising 486 patients. Complications were less frequent in MIS compared with COS (odds ratio [OR], 0.51; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.30-0.84; P = 0.01; I2 = 0%). Major complications related to surgery were less in the MIS group (OR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.21-0.84; P = 0.01; I2 = 0%). The rate of neurologic improvement was similar in both groups (OR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.64-1.59; P = 0.95; I2 = 0%). MIS was associated with less blood loss (mean difference, -690.00 mL; 95% CI, -888.31 to -491.69; P < 0.001; I2 = 56%), and lower transfusion rate compared with COS (OR, 0.27; 95% CI, 0.11-0.66; P = 0.004; I2 = 50%). Length of surgery was similar in both groups (mean difference, -12.49 minutes; 95% CI, -45.93 to 20.95; P = 0.46; I2 = 86%). MIS resulted in shorter length of stay compared with COS (mean difference -3.58 days; 95% CI, -6.90 to -0.26; P = 0.03; I2 = 89%). CONCLUSIONS MIS was associated with lower complications, blood loss, transfusion rate, and shorter length of stay with a similar rate of neurologic improvement and length of surgery compared with COS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this meta-analysis was to synthesize the latest evidence on the effect of probucol on the incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG)/percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS A systematic literature search of PubMed, ScienceDirect, EuropePMC, ProQuest, and Clinicaltrials. gov was performed to retrieve studies that assessed probucol and CIN in CAG/PCI. RESULTS Four studies that compared probucol with hydration alone, comprising 1270 subjects, were identified and analyzed. There was no significant difference between probucol and control groups in the baseline level of creatinine and at 48 hours; however, a significant difference was observed at 72 hours (mean difference: -3.87 μmol/L; 95% confidence interval [CI]: -6.58, -1.15; p=0.005). The meta-analysis indicated that probucol did not reduce the CIN incidence (odds ratio [OR]: 0.46; 95% CI: 0.20, 1.08; p=0.08). After performing a leave-one-out sensitivity analysis, removal of a study resulted in a lower risk of CIN (OR: 0.33; 95% CI: 0.19, 0.56; p<0.001). Probucol did not reduce the CIN incidence in a pooled adjusted effect estimate (OR: 0.75; 95% CI: 0.15, 3.87; p=0.73). There was no significant difference in the rate of major adverse events between the 2 groups (OR: 0.39; 95% CI: 0.05, 3.05; p=0.37). Funnel plot results were asymmetrical, indicating possible publication bias. Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations qualification demonstrated a low and very low certainty of evidence in unadjusted and adjusted effect estimates, respectively. CONCLUSION Probucol did not reduce the incidence of CIN; however, due to the low certainty of evidence, further study is required for a definite conclusion. Although the p value was not significant, the confidence interval showed a nonsignificant trend toward benefit. However, this trend might have been due to publication bias.

Abstract
Introduction National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) endorsed clinical frailty scale (CFS) to help with decision-making. However, this recommendation lacks an evidence basis and is controversial. This meta-analysis aims to quantify the dose-response relationship between CFS and mortality in COVID-19 patients, with a goal of supplementing the evidence of its use. Methods We performed a systematic literature search from several electronic databases up until 8 September 2020. We searched for studies investigating COVID-19 patients and reported both (1) CFS and its distribution (2) CFS and its association with mortality. The outcome of interest was mortality, defined as clinically validated death or non-survivor. The odds ratio (ORs) will be reported per 1% increase in CFS. The potential for a non-linear relationship based on ORs of each quantitative CFS was examined using restricted cubic splines with a three-knots model. Results There were a total of 3817 patients from seven studies. Mean age was 80.3 (SD 8.2), and 53% (48–58%) were males. The pooled prevalence for CFS 1–3 was 34% (32–36%), CFS 4–6 was 42% (40–45%), and CFS 7–9 was 23% (21–25%). Each 1-point increase in CFS was associated with 12% increase in mortality (OR 1.12 (1.04, 1.20), p = 0.003; I2: 77.3%). The dose-response relationship was linear (Pnon-linearity=0.116). The funnel-plot analysis was asymmetrical; Trim-and-fill analysis by the imputation of two studies on the left side resulted in OR of 1.10 [1.03, 1.19]. Conclusion This meta-analysis showed that increase in CFS was associated with increase in mortality in a linear fashion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Breast reconstruction can ease the psychological burden in breast cancer patients that have undergone mastectomy. The aim of our study is to collect the latest evidences to summarize whether pedicled TRAM (pTRAM) is non-inferior in terms of patient satisfaction and complications to free TRAM (fTRAM) so that it may be used in region with limited resources. METHODS We performed a comprehensive search on studies that compared pTRAM and fTRAM flap from several databases. RESULTS There are six studies included. Despite the diversity among the correspondents, all studies demonstrated no difference between the two groups regarding patient overall satisfaction. However, two studies found that pTRAM had lower abdominal well-being score, three found higher abdominal related morbidity, while fTRAM had a higher overall cost. Pooled mean difference was not significant on all BREAST-Q subscales, meaning that pTRAM and fTRAM has a similar outcome. CONCLUSION Although pTRAM is non-inferior in terms of satisfaction to fTRAM, it is associated with a more frequent complication. It may be used in developing countries that lack facilities and limited by cost. However, pTRAM should be done by experienced surgeons to minimize the risk of complications.

Abstract
PURPOSE Intravitreal ranibizumab (RNB) and dexamethasone intravitreal implant (DII) were developed in the recent past and has been widely used for macular edema secondary to BRVO. We aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of intravitreal ranibizumab (RNB) compared to dexamethasone intravitreal implant (DII) in patients with macular edema secondary to branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). METHODS We performed a comprehensive search on topics that assess RNB and DII in patients with macular edema secondary to BRVO from several electronic databases. RESULTS There were 678 subjects from five studies. Ranibizumab was associated with a greater increase in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA; mean difference 9.13, I2: 0%) compared to DII. Ranibizumab also demonstrated a greater ⩾10 (OR 2.76, I2: 0%) and ⩾15 letters (OR 2.78, I2: 0%) gain. RNB has better BCVA (logMAR scale) improvement at 6 months' follow up (mean difference -0.15, I2: 64%) in favor of RNB. Higher IOP was found in DII group on follow-up (mean difference -2.92, I2: 89%) and RNB has lesser IOP ⩾10 mmHg increase compared to DII (OR 0.08, I2: 0%). Cataract formation and/or progression was less in RNB (OR 0.53, I2: 75%). The need for rescue laser was similar the two groups. CONCLUSION Intravitreal RNB was more effective with less pronounced effect on IOP and cataract formation and/or progression compared to DII for patients with macular edema secondary to BRVO.

Abstract
Background There is mounting evidence related to the association between obesity and severity of COVID-19. However, the direct relationship of the increase in the severe COVID-19 risk factors, with an increase in body mass index (BMI), has not yet been evaluated. Aim This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the dose–response relationship between body mass index (BMI) and poor outcome in patients with COVID-19. Methods A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed, Europe PMC, ProQuest, and the Cochrane Central Database. The primary outcome was composite poor outcome composed of mortality and severity. The secondary outcomes were mortality and severity. Results A total of 34,390 patients from 12 studies were included in this meta-analysis. The meta-analysis demonstrated that obesity was associated with composite poor outcome (OR 1.73 [1.40, 2.14], P < 0.001; I2: 55.6%), mortality (OR 1.55 [1.16, 2.06], P = 0.003; I2: 74.4%), and severity (OR 1.90 [1.45, 2.48], P < 0.001; I2: 5.2%) in patients with COVID-19. A pooled analysis of highest BMI versus reference BMI indicate that a higher BMI in the patients was associated with composite poor outcome (aOR 3.02 [1.82, 5.00], P < 0.001; I2: 59.8%), mortality (aOR 2.85 [1.17, 6.92], P = 0.002; I2: 79.7%), and severity (aOR 3.08 [1.78, 5.33], P < 0.001; I2: 11.7%). The dose–response meta-analysis showed an increased risk of composite poor outcome by aOR of 1.052 [1.028, 1.077], P < 0.001 for every 5 kg/m2 increase in BMI (Pnon-linearity < 0.001). The curve became steeper with increasing BMI. Conclusion Dose–response meta-analysis demonstrated that increased BMI was associated with increased poor outcome in patients with COVID-19.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE PulseRider is a novel self-expanding nickel-titanium (nitinol) stent for treatment of wide-necked aneurysms, which is commonly located at the arterial branches in the brain. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to assess the efficacy and safety of PulseRider for treatment of wide-necked intracranial aneurysm. METHOD We performed a systematic literature search on articles that evaluate the efficacy and safety of PulseRider-assisted coiling of the wide-necked aneurysm from several electronic databases. The primary endpoint was adequate occlusion, defined as Raymond-Roy Class I + Raymond-Roy Class II upon immediate angiography and at six-month follow-up. RESULTS There were a total of 157 subjects from six studies. The rate of adequate occlusion on immediate angiography was 90% (95% CI, 85%-94%) and 91% (95% CI, 85%-96%) at six-month follow-up. Of these, Raymond-Roy Class I can be observed in 48% (95% CI, 41%-56%) of aneurysms immediately after coiling, and 64% (95% CI, 55%-72%) of aneurysms on six-month follow-up. Raymond-Roy Class II was found in 30% (95% CI, 23%-37%) of aneurysms immediately after coiling, and 25% (17-33) after six-month follow-up. Complications occur in 5% (95% CI, 1%-8%) of the patients. There were three intraoperative aneurysm rupture, three thrombus formation, three procedure-related posterior cerebral artery strokes, one vessel dissection, and one delayed device thrombosis. There was no procedure/device-related death. CONCLUSIONS PulseRider-assisted coiling for treatment of patients with wide-necked aneurysm reached 90% adequate occlusion rate that rises up to 91% at sixth month with 5% complication rate.

Abstract
Background Fragmented QRS (fQRS) is postulated to be associated with ventricular dyssynchrony and might be able to predict a nonresponse to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) implantation. In this systematic review and meta‐analysis, we aim to assess whether fQRS can be a marker of intraventricular dyssynchronies in patients with ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathy and whether it is an independent predictor of nonresponse in patients receiving CRT. Methods We performed a comprehensive search on topics that assesses fQRS and its association with intraventricular dyssynchrony and nonresponse to CRT up until September 2019. Results Fragmented QRS is associated with intraventricular dyssynchrony (OR 10.34 [3.39, 31.54], p < .001; I2: 80% with sensitivity 76.8%, specificity 77%, LR+ 3.3, and LR− 0.3). Subgroup analysis showed that fQRS is associated with intraventricular dyssynchrony in patients with narrow QRS complex (OR 20.92 [12.24, 35.73], p < .001; I2: 0%) and nonischemic cardiomyopathy (OR of 19.97 [12.12, 32.92], p < .001; I2: 0%). Fragmented QRS was also associated with a higher time‐to‐peak myocardial sustained systolic (Ts‐SD) (OR 15.19 [12.58, 17.80], p < .001; I2: 0% and positive Yu index (OR 15.61 [9.07, 26.86], p < .001; I2: 0%). Fragmented QRS has a pooled adjusted OR of OR of 1.70 [1.35, 2.14], p < .001; I2: 62% for association with a nonresponse to CRT. QRS duration is found to be higher in nonresponders group mean difference −8.54 [−13.38, −3.70], p < .001; I2: 70%. Conclusion Fragmented QRS is associated with intraventricular dyssynchrony and is independently associated with nonresponse to cardiac resynchronization therapy.

Abstract
Objective This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to synthesize the latest evidence on the efficacy and safety of oral acetaminophen compared to oral ibuprofen for patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in preterm infants. Methods We performed a systematic literature search on topics that assesses the use of oral paracetamol compared to oral ibuprofen in preterm neonates diagnosed with PDA from PubMed, EuropePMC, Cochrane Central Database, ScienceDirect, ProQuest, ClinicalTrials.gov, and hand-sampling from potential articles. Results There were 1547 subjects from 10 selected studies. Primary closure rate was similar in both groups. Subgroup analysis on studies enrolling neonates with ≤30 weeks gestational age showed that ibuprofen was superior (OR 0.52 [0.31, 0.90], I2: 0%). On the other hand, paracetamol was superior neonates with ≤34 weeks gestational age (OR 1.73 [1.01, 2.94], I2: 30%). Reopening rate, surgical closure rate, mortality, intraventricular hemorrhage, and necrotizing enterocolitis were similar in both groups. Rate of renal dysfunction (OR 0.27 [0.10, 0.77], I2: 0%) and gastrointestinal bleeding (OR 0.31 [0.11, 0.88], I2: 0%) were lower in paracetamol group. Subgroup analysis of randomized controlled studies (RCTs) showed similar results. Meta-regression analysis showed that the primary closure rate was not influenced by gestational age, birth weight, and gender. GRADE demonstrates a low level of certainty for primary closure and mortality. Renal dysfunction and gastrointestinal bleeding havea moderate level of certainty. Conclusion There was no significant difference between the efficacy of oral paracetamol and oral ibuprofen. However, the rate of renal dysfunction and gastrointestinal bleeding were higher in oral ibuprofen.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of direct vs preimplantation balloon valvuloplasty (predilatation) before transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). METHODS We performed a systematic literature search up until March 2020 from PubMed, SCOPUS, EuropePMC, Cochrane Central Database, ProQuest, and ClinicalTrials.gov. We included randomized controlled trial (RCT) and prospective-matched cohorts that compared direct TAVR and preimplantation balloon valvuloplasty before TAVR. The primary outcome was the device success as defined by Valve Academic Research Consortium 2. The secondary outcome was a patient-prosthesis mismatch, the need for balloon postdilatation, composite adverse events, and 1-year mortality. RESULTS There were a total of 3078 patients from eight studies. This meta-analysis showed that direct TAVR has a similar device success rate (P = .63), the need for postdilatation (P = .82), and composite adverse events (P = .98) compared with preimplantation balloon valvuloplasty. Subgroup analysis for balloon-expandable valves showed lower need for balloon postdilatation (risk ratio [RR], 0.63 [0.47, 0.84]; P = .002; I2 , 0%) in direct TAVR group but higher incidence of acute kidney injury (RR, 3.23 [1.25, 8.40]; P = .02; I2 , 0%) and major/life-threatening bleeding (RR, 1.54 [1.17, 2.02]; P = .002; I2 , 0%). Subgroup analysis for the RCTs alone and RCTs + propensity-matched cohorts showed similar device success and composite adverse events in both groups. However, pooled RCTs showed a higher need for balloon postdilatation in direct TAVR (RR, 1.83 [1.03, 3.24]; P = .04; I2 , 0%). CONCLUSION Direct TAVR has similar efficacy and safety to preimplantation balloon valvuloplasty. However, better-designed RCTs are required before drawing a definite conclusion.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to synthesize the latest evidence on the efficacy and safety of Neuroform Atlas-assisted coiling of intracranial aneurysms. METHODS We performed a comprehensive search for articles that assessed the efficacy and safety of Neuroform Atlas-assisted coiling of intracranial aneurysms. The outcome measurement was adequate occlusion, defined as Raymond-Roy Class I (RR1) + Raymond-Roy Class II (RR2) by previous studies. RESULTS A total of 557 patients (568 aneurysms) from 13 studies were included. The rate of adequate occlusion after the procedure was 88% (83-94%, I2: 72.21%), and the rates of RR1 and RR2 were 68% (60-77%, I2: 81.87%) and 21% (15-27%, I2: 66.10%), respectively. The adequate occlusion rate at 6 months was 90% (81-99%, I2: 58.04%) and 93% (91-96%, I2: 0%) at the end of a mean of 9.03 ± 1.03 months of follow-up. Periprocedural complications occurred in 35 patients [5% (3-8%, I2: 21.28%)]. Subgroup analysis of unruptured aneurysms showed that the rates of adequate occlusion were 85% (78-93%), 90% (79-100%) (6-month follow-up), and 93% (90-96%) (at the end of follow-up). For the wide-necked aneurysm subgroup, the rate of adequate occlusion was 86% (80-93%) and was 93% (89-97%) at the end of follow-up. Meta-regression showed that initial adequate occlusion was influenced by mean aneurysm neck size (p = 0.034). CONCLUSION Neuroform Atlas-assisted coiling is associated with an initial adequate occlusion rate of 88% and a periprocedural complication rate of 6%. The rate of initial adequate occlusion was 85% in unruptured aneurysms and 86% in wide-necked aneurysms. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level 2, Systematic review of non-randomized and single-arm studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Air pollution is one of the most substantial problems globally. Aerodynamic toxic of particulate matter with <10 mm in diameter (PM10 ), or <2.5 mm (PM2.5 ), as well as nitric dioxide (NO2 ), have been linked with health issues. We aimed to perform a comprehensive analysis of the time-to-event for different types of air pollutants on cardiovascular disease (CVD) events based on cohort studies. METHODS A comprehensive search on topics that assesses air pollution and cardiovascular disease with keywords up until July 2019 was performed. RESULTS There were a total of 28 215 394 subjects from 84 cohorts. Increased PM2.5 was associated with composite CVD [HR 1.10 (1.02, 1.19)], acute coronary events [HR 1.15 (1.12, 1.17)], stroke [HR 1.13 (1.06, 1.19)], and hypertension [HR 1.07 (1.01, 1.14)], all-cause mortality [HR 1.07 (1.04, 1.09)], CVD mortality [HR 1.10 (1.07, 1.12)], and ischemic heart disease (IHD) mortality [HR 1.11 (1.07, 1.16)]. Association with AF became significant after removal of a study. Increased PM10 was associated with heart failure [HR 1.25 (1.04, 1.50)], all-cause mortality [HR 1.16 (1.06, 1.27)], CVD mortality [HR 1.17 (1.04, 1.30)], and IHD mortality [HR 1.03 (1.01, 1.05)]. Increased of NO2 was associated with increased composite CVD [HR 1.15 (1.02, 1.29)], atrial fibrillation [HR 1.01 (1.01, 1.02)], acute coronary events [HR 1.08 (1.02, 1.13)], all-cause mortality [HR 1.23 (1.14, 1.32)], CVD mortality [HR 1.17 (1.10, 1.25)], and IHD mortality [HR 1.05 (1.03, 1.08)]. CONCLUSION Air pollutants are associated with an increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases, all-cause mortality, and CVD mortality.

Abstract
Introduction This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to assess the latest evidence on the use of renal denervation (RDN) + pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) compared to PVI alone for treating atrial fibrillation (AF) with hypertension. Methods A systematic literature search from several electronic databases was performed up until January 2020. The primary outcome was AF recurrence defined as AF/atrial flutter (AFL)/atrial tachycardia (AT) ≥30 seconds at 12‐month follow‐up and the secondary outcome was procedure‐related complications. Results There were 568 subjects from five studies. AF recurrence was 90/280 (32.1%) in the RDN + PVI group and 142/274 (51.8%) in the PVI group. RDN + PVI was associated with a lower incidence of AF recurrence (RR 0.62 [0.51, 076], P < .001; I2: 0%). Pooled analysis of HR showed that RDN + PVI was associated with reduced AF recurrence (HR 0.51 [0.38, 0.70], P < .001; I2: 0%). Complications were 7/241 (2.9%) in the RDN + PVI group and 8/237 (3.4%) in the PVI group. The rate of complications between the groups was similar (RR 0.87 [0.33, 2.29], P = .77; I2: 0%). In the subgroup analysis of paroxysmal AF, RDN + PVI was shown to reduce AF recurrence (RR 0.64 [0.49, 0.82], P < .001; I2: 0% and HR 0.56 [0.38, 0.82], P = .003; I2: 0%) compared to PVI alone. RDN + PVI has a moderate certainty of evidence in the reducing AF recurrence with an absolute reduction of 197 fewer per 1000 (from 254 fewer to 124 fewer). Conclusion RDN in addition to PVI, is associated with reduced 12‐month AF recurrence and similar procedure‐related complications compared to PVI alone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) remains high despite the use of low-molecular weight heparin (LMWH) and compression stocking (CS). We aimed to evaluate the use of IPC as VTE prophylaxis in neurosurgical patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted meta-analysis to assess the use of IPC as VTE prophylaxis in neurosurgical patients from several databases. RESULTS There was a total of 7.515 subjects from 5 studies. Reduction in VTE incidence was demonstrated by the IPC group (OR 0.40 [0.31, 0.52], p < 0.001; I2: 44 %). IPC was shown to reduce the incidence of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) (OR 0.43 [0.32, 0.57], p < 0.001; I2: 0 %) compared to the control group. Incidence of pulmonary embolism (PE) was lower (OR 0.42 [0.25, 0.70], p < 0.001; I2: 80 %) in IPC. Upon sensitivity analysis, PE was significantly lower in IPC (OR 0.24 [0.13, 0.45], p < 0.001; I2: 0 %). Subgroup analysis on patients undergoing neurosurgical intervention (operation) and receiving LMWH + CS shows a markedly reduced incidence of VTE (OR 0.37 [0.28, 0.50], p < 0.001; I2: 3 %), DVT (OR 0.39 [0.28, 0.54], p < 0.001; I2: 0 %), and PE (OR 0.22 [0.11, 0.43], p < 0.001; I2: 0 %) in IPC. CONCLUSION Intermittent pneumatic compression was associated with less VTE in neurosurgical patients, especially in those who received neurosurgical interventions, however, the certainty of evidence remained inadequate for creating a strong recommendation and further randomized controlled trials are needed before drawing a definite conclusion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infections after cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) placement are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The incidence of CIED is increasing overtime despite the optimal use of antimicrobial agents. This systematic review and meta-analysis will address the latest evidence on the use of AE to mitigate the risk of CIED infection, and which subset of patients will they benefit the most. METHODS We performed a comprehensive search on topics that assesses antibiotic envelope and implantable cardiac electronic device up until August 2019. RESULTS There were a total of 32,329 subjects from six studies. Antibiotic envelope was associated with a lower risk of major infection with OR 0.42 [0.19, 0.97], P = .04; I2: 58% and HR 0.52 [0.32, 0.85], P = .009; I2: 80%. Upon sensitivity analysis by removing a study, the OR became 0.40 [0.27, 0.59], P < .001; I2: 46%. Subgroup analysis for 12 months' infection was OR 0.65 [0.43, 0.99], P = .04; I2: 49%. Meta-analysis of propensity-matched cohort showed a reduced risk of infection with AE (OR of 0.14 [0.05, 0.41], P < .001; I2:0%). Mortality was similar in both AE and control groups. Antibiotic envelope reduced the incidence of infection in patients receiving high-power device (OR 0.44 [0.27, 0.73], P = .001; I2:0%) but not low-power device. CONCLUSION Antibiotic envelope (TYRX) was found to be safe and effective in reducing the risk of major infections in high-risk patients receiving CIED implantation, especially in those receiving high-power CIED.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Warts can be difficult to treat and progressing to chronic and resistant disease. Several studies have reported the successful application of mumps-measles-rubella (MMR) vaccine resulting in clearance of warts via immunomodulation and induction of immune system. METHODS We performed a comprehensive search on the role of intralesional MMR in warts from several electronic databases. Complete response is defined as complete clearance of warts lesion. RESULTS There were a total of 425 subjects from five studies. Intralesional injection of MMR was associated with an increased complete response (OR 9.43 [5.78, 15.37], p < .001; I2: 5%, p = .38). Subgroup analysis on patients receiving injection for every 2 weeks for a maximum of five injections revealed an OR of 11.70 [6.40, 21.38], p < .001; I2: 20%, p = .29. Patients receiving intralesional MMR were associated with a lower partial response (OR 0.54 [0.33, 0.88], p = .01; I2: 0%, p = .66). Intralesional MMR was associated with a reduced no-response (OR 0.16 [0.06, 0.43], p < .001; I2: 69%, p = .01). Funnel plot analysis for complete response was asymmetrical, indicating the risk of publication bias. There were statistically significant small-study effects for intralesional MMR on complete response upon analysis using Harbord's test (p = .047). Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) assessment showed that intralesional MMR injection has high level of certainty (quality of evidence) for complete response in warts with an absolute increase of 505 per 1000. CONCLUSION Intralesional MMR injection was associated with a higher complete response and lower no-response with a high level of certainty.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is associated with increased mortality and morbidity in patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We aimed to assess the latest evidence on the effect of nicorandil on the incidence of CIN in patients undergoing CAG/PCI. METHODS We performed a comprehensive search on topics that assessed nicorandil and CIN in CAG/PCI patients from inception up until November 2019 through several electronic databases. RESULTS There were a total of 1532 subjects from 7 randomized controlled trials. Nicorandil was associated with decrease CIN incidence (OR 0.31 [0.20, 0.46], p < 0.001; I2: 0%). Funnel plot was asymmetrical, indicating the risk of publication bias. Oral administration (OR 0.29 [0.18, 0.46], p < 0.001; I2: 0%) has a greater efficacy compared to intravenous route (OR 0.40 [0.17, 0.93], p < 0.001; I2: 73%). Pooled analysis of adjusted OR revealed that nicorandil reduced CIN incidence independent to other factors in the respective studies (OR 0.34 [0.16, 0.74], p = 0.006, I2: 75%). Protection against CIN (OR 0.37 [0.22, 0.61], p < 0.001; I2: 22%) was also demonstrated in renal dysfunction subgroup, pooled adjusted OR showed that the effect is independent (OR 0.30 [0.10, 0.90], p = 0.03, I2: 86%). GRADE assessment showed moderate level of certainty for the CIN reducing effect of nicorandil in both unadjusted and adjusted models with an absolute reduction of 85 per 1000 and 87 per 1000. Harbord test showed no evidence of small-study effects (p = 0.866). CONCLUSION Nicorandil is associated with a lower risk of CIN in patients undergoing CAG/PCI with a moderate level of certainty.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The flap necrosis rate remains high despite the advancement of technology in daily practices. Several randomized trials of topical Nitroglycerin (NTG) have shown promise in reducing flap necrosis. We aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical NTG in preventing flap failure based on existing databases. METHOD We searched through PubMed, EuropePMC, EBSCOhost, Cochrane CENTRAL database, Clinicaltrials.gov, and hand sampling for "flap survival", "topical nitroglycerin", and "flap perfusion". RESULTS With a total of 6947 patients from 3 RCT and 2 retrospective cohorts, NTG was shown to prevent flap failure in mastectomy flaps by NTG with an OR 0.23 [0.10, 0.53]; p < 0.001), I2 73%. Upon sensitivity analysis to reduce heterogeneity, the OR was 0.17 [0.07, 0.40]; p < 0.001, I2 52%. Upon subgroup analysis of RCT, the OR was 0.17 [0.10, 0.30]; p < 0.001, I2 50%. Newer studies subgroup had OR 0.48 [0.33, 0.70]; p<0.001; I2 46. Upon subgroup analysis of single application only, the OR for flap necrosis was 0.36 [0.18, 0.73]; p = 0.005, I2 67% and subgroup analysis repeated application had an OR of 0.05 [0.01, 0.21]; p < 0.001, I2 14%. CONCLUSION Nitroglycerin seemed to be an ideal agent to increase the chance of flap survival in mastectomy flaps. It has an excellent safety profile, hence, is suitable for empiric use. More randomized controlled trials comparing different regiments and other preparations are needed to conclude whether repeated application at a low dose is most effective, and whether the success is reproducible on other types of flaps.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is associated with increased mortality and morbidity in patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We aimed to assess the latest evidence on the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on the incidence of CIN in patients undergoing CAG/PCI. METHODS We performed a comprehensive search on topics assessing RIPC and CIN in CAG/PCI patients from inception up until July 2019 through several electronic databases. RESULTS There were a total of 1,925 subjects from 14 randomized controlled trials. Remote ischemic preconditioning was associated with reduced CIN incidence in patients undergoing CAG/PCI (OR 0.41 [0.30, 0.55], p < .001; I2 : 22%). The nephroprotective effect was also demonstrated in those at moderate-high risk for CIN subgroup (OR 0.41 [0.29, 0.58], p < .001; I2 : 26%) and PCI-only subgroup (OR 0.41 [0.29, 0.58], p < .001; I2 : 0%). Time from RIPC to CAG/PCI has similar effectiveness among ≤45, ≤60, and ≤120 min. Mortality, rehospitalization, hemodialysis, and major adverse events were lower in the RIPC group (OR 0.50 [0.33, 0.76], p = .001; I2 : 0%). Grading of recommendations assessment, development and evaluation (GRADE) assessment showed that RIPC has high evidence certainty for reducing CIN in patients undergoing PCI/CAG, moderate-high risk subgroup, and PCI-only subgroup with absolute reduction of 97 per 1,000, 129 per 1,000, and 121 per 1,000, respectively. Harbord test showed no evidence for the presence of small-study effects (p = .157). CONCLUSIONS Remote ischemic preconditioning is an effective procedure to reduce the risk of CIN and should be considered in patients with moderate-high risk at developing CIN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early repolarization (ER) has been linked to ventricular arrhythmia (VA) and sudden cardiac death in patients without structural heart disease. We aimed to assess the latest evidence on whether ER is associated with future VA after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). METHODS We performed a comprehensive search on the topic that assesses ER and VA/adverse cardiovascular events in AMI. We included studies with sufficient details on ER and VA, we also performed a meta-analysis on their morphology. RESULTS A total of 3350 subjects from 9 studies were included. Five hundred and twenty-one (15.55%) had ER and 2829 (84.45%) did not. On meta-analysis, ER (+) in AMI was associated with VA with a pooled odds ratio (OR) of 3.58 (2.70-4.73), P < 0.001; heterogeneity I 2 34%. Subgroup analysis of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) showed an OR of 2.79 [1.98-3.93], P < 0.001; heterogeneity I 2 0%. Inferior location of ER (+) was associated with VA OR 3.98 [1.86-8.53], P = 0.008; I 2 67%. Notching had a 5.41 [3.52-8.32], P < 0.001; low heterogeneity I 2 0% of having VA. Pooled OR for J-point elevation was 4.72 [2.63-8.46], P < 0.001; I 2 25%. Horizontal ST-segment was associated with VA with an OR of 4.30 [1.89-975], P < 0.001; I 2 59%. Lateral location and slurred morphology were not associated with VA. Upon sensitivity analysis for inferior location and horizontal ST-segment, removal of a study reduces heterogeneity significantly. CONCLUSION Early repolarization especially those with the inferior location, notching morphology, an elevated J-point and horizontal ST-segment had a higher likelihood of VA in AMI including STEMI patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Controversies surrounded the management of asymptomatic Brugada syndrome. Prognostication using electrophysiology study (EPS) is disputable. Non-invasive parameters may be a valuable additional tool for risk stratification. We aim to evaluate the use markers of ventricular repolarization including Tpeak-to-Tend (TpTe), Tpe Dispersion, TpTe/QT ratio, and QTc interval as additional non-invasive electrocardiography parameters for predicting ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation in patients with Brugada syndrome. METHODS We performed a comprehensive search on TpTe, Tpe Dispersion, TpTe/QT ratio, and QTc interval as a predictor for ventricular tachycardia(VT)/fibrillation(VF)/aborted sudden cardiac death/appropriate ICD shock in patients with Brugada syndromes up until October 2018. RESULTS We included ten studies in the qualitative synthesis and eight studies in meta-analysis. There were a total of 2126 subjects from ten studies. We found that TpTe interval (mean difference 11.97 m s [5.02-18.91]; p < 0.001; I2 80% possibly on ≥80-100 m s and maximum QTc interval (mean difference 11.42 m s [5.90-16.93], p < 0.001; I2 28%) were the most potential ECG parameters to predict VT/VF/AT/SCD. Tpe dispersion and TpTe/QT ratio have a high heterogeneity. Upon sensitivity analysis, there is no single study found to markedly affect heterogeneity of Tpe dispersion and TpTe/QT ratio. Removal of a study reduced maximum QTc interval heterogeneity to 0%. CONCLUSIONS Measurement of TpTe interval, Tp-e dispersion, TpTe/QT ratio, and QTc interval on ECG emerge as a promising prognostication tool which needs further investigations with a more standardized method, outcome, and cut-off points. As for now, only maximum QTc interval has a reliable result with low heterogeneity sufficiently reliable for prognostication.

Abstract
Background Contact-force sensing catheter is widely used for catheter ablation, however, it did not take account of radiofrequency power. Ablation index (AI) is a novel marker incorporating contact force-time-power, was shown to be reliable in predicting lesion size and depth for radiofrequency delivery. We aimed to assess the latest evidence on ablation index guided procedure versus conventional ablation procedure. Methods We performed a comprehensive search on topic that assesses ablation index guided procedure versus conventional procedures from inception up until February 2019 through PubMed, EuropePMC, EBSCOhost, Cochrane Central Database, and ClinicalTrials.gov. Results A total of 1727 subjects from five studies were included. 12 months’ incidence of AF/AT/AFL was lower in ablation index guided with an OR of 0.35 [0.17, 0.73], p = 0.005; I2 58%. Upon sensitivity analysis by removing a study, heterogeneity decreased to 0% with OR of 0.26 [0.15, 0.46], p < 0.001. First-pass isolation has a pooled OR of 11.29 [4.68, 27.20], p < 0.001; I2 58%. Pooled OR for acute pulmonary vein reconnection was 0.43 [0.29, 0.64], p < 0.001; I2 46%. AI group has a shorter fluoroscopy time of MD -1.62 [-2.62, −0.62] minutes, p = 0.001; I2 51% and total ablation time MD -9.96 [-17.16, −2.76] minutes, p < 0.001; I2 95%. Total procedural time and complication rate were similar. Conclusion Ablation index guided procedure resulted in a significantly lower incidence of AF/AT/AFL, shorter fluoroscopy time, and total ablation time. First-pass isolation was higher in AI group and acute PVR was lower in AI group. Ablation-index guided procedure has a similar safety profile to conventional ablation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A prolonged P-wave duration (PWD) in sinus rhythm pre-ablation has been hypothesized to be a non-invasive ECG marker associated with increased atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). This systematic review and meta-analysis will assess the latest evidence on the association of prolonged PWD pre-ablation with AF recurrence after PVI. HYPOTHESIS Prolonged PWD pre-ablation is associated with AF recurrence after PVI. METHODS The inclusion criteria for this study are all cohort studies that assess prolonged PWD on ECG during sinus rhythm pre-ablation and its association with AF recurrence in post-PVI patients. RESULTS There were 1,482 patients with AF post-PVI from twelve cohort studies. The cut-off points for prolonged PWD ranges from >120 ms to >150 ms. Meta-analysis on six studies showed a pooled mean difference of PWD in subjects with recurrent AF and non-recurring AF was 12.54 ms [8.76-16.31], p < 0.001; I2 78%. Pooled odds ratio was 4.17 [2.10-8.31], p < 0.001; I2 72% and pooled hazard ratio was 1.93 [1.10-3.39], p = 0.02; I2 80%. Upon subgroup analysis, the association between prolonged PWD and AF recurrence was significant in signal-averaged ECG, 12-lead ECG, paroxysmal AF, >120-130 ms, and >140-150 ms PWD cut-off point subgroups. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that prolonged PWD with a cutoff of >120 ms to >150 ms in sinus rhythm before ablation may be associated with AF recurrence after PVI regardless of age, gender, left atrial size, and the presence of structural heart disease. We also encouraged further studies that investigate predicting models to include prolonged PWD as one of their parameters.
