“…Suggested cut-offs for uterine wall thickness by the study results (septate when I:WT > 110%) showed that I:WT can be accurate in diagnosis, but a wide margin of error for this benchmark (approximately ± 80% just by another observer repeating the measurement) indicates problems of its use in clinical practice. Currently, there is no evidence to support any surgical procedure for women with a septate uterus 9 . There are two ongoing trials, neither of which contains a reliable/accurate definition of septate uterus in the registered study protocol 37,38 .…”

Modern management of recurrent miscarriage

Recurrent miscarriage (RM), also known as recurrent pregnancy loss, is a distressing condition affecting around 1% of couples trying to conceive It can be very frustrating for both clinicians and patients as, despite intensive workup, no clear underlying pathology is forthcoming in at least 50% of couples. This leads to despair for patients and leaves clinicians at a loss for how to help. Desperation in both camps can promote the uptake of investigations and interventions of unproven benefit. The pathophysiology underpinning RM is incredibly diverse, involving areas such as haematology, endocrinology, immunology and genetics. During the seven to eight years since the UK Royal College of Obstetricians andGynaecologists published guidelines on this topic in 2011, new evidence and guidance from expert authorities have emerged. Here, these important advances in this challenging field of clinical practice will be reviewed.

A review of the reporting of web searching to identify studies for Cochrane systematic reviews

The literature searches that are used to identify studies for inclusion in a systematic review should be comprehensively reported. This ensures that the literature searches are transparent and reproducible, which is important for assessing the strengths and weaknesses of a systematic review and re-running the literature searches when conducting an update review. Web searching using search engines and the websites of topically relevant organisations is sometimes used as a supplementary literature search method. Previous research has shown that the reporting of web searching in systematic reviews often lacks important details and is thus not transparent or reproducible. Useful details to report about web searching include the name of the search engine or website, the URL, the date searched, the search strategy, and the number of results. This study reviews the reporting of web searching to identify studies for Cochrane systematic reviews published in the 6-month period August 2016 to January 2017 (n = 423). Of these reviews, 61 reviews reported using web searching using a search engine or website as a literature search method. In the majority of reviews, the reporting of web searching was found to lack essential detail for ensuring transparency and reproducibility, such as the search terms. Recommendations are made on how to improve the reporting of web searching in Cochrane systematic reviews.
