Summary of findings: pioglitazone monotherapy vs another pharmacological glucose‐lowering monotherapy

Metformin Diagnostic criteria: 2 studies applied the WHO 1999 criteria for 'prediabetes' (FPG > 6.1 mmol/L and < 7.0 mmol/L and/or a 2‐h glucose < 11.1 mmol/L after a 75 g OGTT; Chen 2007a; Zeng 2013) · people at increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes

Summary of findings: pioglitazone monotherapy showed no clear difference in metformin Diagnostic criteria: 2 studies applied the WHO 1999… compared with another pharmacological glucose‐lowering monotherapy (low certainty).

Bakri balloon tamponade vs haemostatic square suturing to the lower segment of the uterus (intrauterine tamponade versus another mechanical/surgical method)

Blood transfusion (red cell or whole blood) · women with complete placenta praevia and intractable bleeding following caesarean section

It is very uncertain whether bakri balloon tamponade changes blood transfusion (red cell or whole blood) compared with haemostatic square suturing to the lower segment of the uterus… (very low certainty).
