Comparative efficacy of conservative interventions for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials by Jun Ren, Shoujian Wang, Miaoxiu Li, Xin Zhou, Ya Wen, Zonglin Wen, Jiannan Lin, Lingjun Kong, Min Fang

“…Although brace alone (MD: 1.53, 95% CI: 1.09 to 2.14, high certainty) could be the intermediate effective intervention in preventing scoliosis progression, moderate to high certainty evidence showed that brace alone and PSSE alone probably have little or no difference in improving Cobb angle, function, mental health, self-image, angle of trunk rotation (ATR), or satisfaction of patients with AIS compared to minimal interventions. …”

Doses associated with interventional radiology patients: a retrospective analysis in cerebral angiography by Raquel Nascimento Assimos, Lucía Viviana Canevaro

“…In this work, a retrospective study was carried out using information from cerebral arteriography procedures (CAP) recorded in the IRaD (Interventional Radiology Database). Data were extracted from 39 procedures to analyze the frequency of the C-arm X-ray machine projections performed during the procedures and the contribution of the different projections of the C-arm to air kerma and air kerma/image parameters in DSA mode, and this has been done at various angles and for the most commonly used filters. …”
