Single foetal haemoglobin inducer at any dose or duration vs placebo or usual care

Adverse events · people with non‐transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassaemia

It is very uncertain whether single foetal haemoglobin inducer at any dose or duration changes adverse events compared with usual care or placebo (very low certainty).

Summary of findings: anti‐pseudomonal antibiotics vs placebo

Frequency of hospital admissions for pulmonary exacerbations ‐ not measured · adults and children with cystic fibrosis and a positive microbiological isolate of P aeruginosa from a respiratory tract specimen

Summary of findings: anti‐pseudomonal antibiotics may leads to lower pulmonary exacerbations: frequency of one or more hospital admissions compared with placebo (low certainty).
