Vol. 42 No. 5 (2018): SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER

The systematic review is now considered as a source of reliable information. It can be large including a lot of trials or very small including no trial. It can be also very rigid to answer a specific clinical question or pragmatic to answer common problems we face in everyday life. In this issue, you will find three systematic reviews answering the common clinical questions; the common medication we used to reduce heart rate before undergoing computed tomography angiography, which one is better; or bladder infusion versus standard catheter removal in those with urinary retention, which one is superior; or flunarizine and betahistine in patients with vertigo, which one is recommended. Moreover, there is also an article exploring the myth of using acetazolamide in children with meningitis with increased intracranial pressue. All the answers can be found in this issue. Find them out yourself. Enjoy!
