RESUMO
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is an essential operation for patients who have severe coronary artery disease (CAD). Both open and minimally invasive CABG methods are used to treat CAD. This in-depth review looks at the latest research on the effectiveness of open versus minimally invasive CABG. The goal is to develop evidence-based guidelines that will improve surgical outcomes. This systematic review used databases such as PubMed, MEDLINE, and Web of Science for a full electronic search. We adhered to the PRISMA guidelines and registered the results in the PROSPERO. The search method used MeSH phrases and many different study types to find papers. After removing duplicate publications and conducting a screening process, we collaboratively evaluated the full texts to determine their inclusion. We then extracted data, including diagnosis, the total number of patients in the study, clinical recommendations from the studies, surgical complications, angina recurrence, hospital stay duration, and mortality rates. Many studies that investigate open and minimally invasive CABG methods have shown that the type of surgery can have a large effect on how well the patient recovers and how well the surgery works overall. While there are limited data on the possible advantages of minimally invasive CABG, a conclusive comparison with open CABG is still dubious. Additional clinical trials are required to examine a wider spectrum of patient results.
RESUMO
Venous ulcers are open wounds commonly associated with chronic venous insufficiency. Each patient's healing process is unique, and factors like nutrition and compression therapy can affect it. Compression therapy and optimal nutritional status can assist in improving venous blood circulation, decreasing swelling, and promoting wound healing. This in-depth review looks at all the recent research on how nutrition and compression therapy can help heal venous ulcers, aiming to develop evidence-based guidelines for improving treatment outcomes. The systematic review, registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) and following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) principles, conducted an extensive electronic search in databases such as PubMed, MEDLINE, Cochrane, Web of Science, and Scopus. Using Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms and different types of studies, the search method focused on studies that directly looked at how nutrition and compression therapy affected the healing of venous ulcers. After deduplicating and screening publications, a collaborative full-text review was conducted to determine their inclusion. As a result, several research studies were chosen for the qualitative synthesis. The authors created a data extraction form to document important variables such as demographics, therapy specifics, and wound features. Several studies on patients with venous ulcers have shown that consuming basic nutrients can improve wound healing. Treatment results differed depending on the types of compression and pressure intensity. Although minimal data indicates the possible benefits of two-layer therapy, a definitive comparison is still uncertain. Further clinical studies are necessary to investigate a wider range of dietary factors and to evaluate different treatments in similar situations.
