Percutaneous ethanol injection vs radiofrequency ablation

Serious adverse events (number of events) · people with early‐ or very early‐stage hepatocellular carcinoma ineligible for surgery

It is very uncertain whether percutaneous alcohol injection changes serious adverse events (number of events) compared with radiofrequency ablation (very low certainty).

Laparoscopy vs laparotomy

Serious adverse events (range of outcomes) · adult women diagnosed with early stage (I to IIa) endometrial cancer undergoing surgery as primary treatment.

Laparoscopy showed no clear difference in serious adverse events (range of outcomes) compared with laparotomy (low certainty).
