It was evaluated if the administration of 200 mg of intravaginal progesterone was useful to prevent preterm birth in twin and triplet pregnancies (because the prematurity is more common in them)
Avoiding prematurity (<37 weeks) improves the baby's health and reduces the need for neonatal care.
The quality of evidence about this recommendation is moderate.
The authors searched for randomised and non-randomised studies of interventions to reduce the risk of SARS-CoV-2 in non-healthcare workplaces. It was uncertain whether or not a strategy of test‐based attendance reduced COVID‐19 infection rates compared with routine isolation after contact with a person infected by COVID‐19. More randomised and non-randomised studies of interventions to reduce SARS-CoV-2 infection rates in workplaces outside of the healthcare should be conducted, because ...
It is recommended to test only immunocompetent adults or children who present with acute respiratory illness suggestive of viral etiology for specific viruses of interest—influenza, COVID‐19, and RSV.
Returning to our clinical scenarios, evidence shows that RPPs do not reduce antibiotic use in immunocompetent adults and children, are not necessarily clinically relevant, are costly, and often do not provide results in a timely manner. Accordingly, in our 5‐month‐old with bronchiolitis ...
Preventative measures were used in a minority of studies. Pre-traumatic vaccination, in which first responders were prepared beforehand about how to react and cope during traumatic events, was the most effective preventative measure. The majority of studies used psychological interventions as a treatment, most of which improved the mental health of first responders. Debriefing sessions after a disaster often showed no effect, and in one case, worsened symptoms.

Verbal processing of past experiences, reflective exercises, self-soothing and distress tolerance skills, clinical management, interpersonal skills and interactions, psychoeducation, and creativity and the arts were beneficial.
Verbal processing and creative arts interventions showed substantial reductions in depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, functional disturbances, and peer problems. In addition, verbal processing interventions were effective for anger, traumatic grief, ...
