The Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effects (DARE; Other Reviews) contains structured summaries from systematic reviews which are published worldwide and which have passed a quality filter of the NHS-Centre for Reviews and Dissemination of the University of York, England. Abstracts of qualitatively highly-assessed reviews are found in the database. The bibliographical indications as well as the assessment criteria of the further works are listed. Bibliographical indications, descriptors as well as abstracts can be searched.

Controlled Terms (CT): MeSH thesaurus with polyhierarchical
structure
Language of vocabulary: English
The hierarchical structure of the thesaurus allows a one step search for indented descriptors using the command FIND CT DOWN … (explosion). CT can be limited using more than 80 qualifiers, e.g. epidemiology of a disease (FIND CT=.../QF=ep). List of qualifiers see appendix.
Descriptors, describing the major topics of an article are weighted and marked in the document by an asterisk (HIV SEROPOSITIVITY/*). You can search for weighted descriptors with the command FIND CT=.../W=1.
The command DISPLAY CT TREE ... displays the structure of the thesaurus.
DISPLAY CT= ... ;ALL displays all available additional information to a descriptor (see table below).
The following additional information for controlled terms (CT) is available:
| Code | Field Name | Description |

| AB: | CRD summary This review concluded that ibuprofen, paracetamol and placebo for paediatric pain and fever had comparable profiles for gastrointestinal symptoms, asthma and renal adverse effects. This was generally a well-conducted review and the authors' conclusions are likely to be reliable, although (as the authors acknowledged) some caution may be merited based on comparisons with placebo from a few small studies. Authors' objectives To compare the tolerability and safety of ibuprofen and paracetamol when used as anti-pyretic and analgesic agents in children up to 18 years of age. Searching MEDLINE, EMBASE, The Cochrane Library, ACP Journal Club and Pascal were searched for publications in English, French, Dutch, German or Portuguese. Search dates ranged from 1950 to November 2008. The search strategy for one database was available as an online supplement; other databases were available on request from the authors. Study selection Randomised controlled trials (RCTs), controlled observational studies (assessing rare adverse events) and large case series (>1,000 participants) that compared efficacy, safety and tolerability of ibuprofen and/or paracetamol with placebo in children up to 18 years of age with pain and/or fever were eligible for inclusion. Outcome measures included: adverse events that required discontinuation of medication; systemic reactions related to ibuprofen or paracetamol; fatal or life-threatening adverse events or those that required hospitalisation; and serious adverse events that did not require hospitalisation. Included studies were undertaken in North America, Europe and Asia (half of them in either USA or France). Most of the included RCTs compared ibuprofen with paracetamol. A third of the studies were funded by pharmaceutical companies. Two reviewers independently selected studies for inclusion in the review. Disagreements were resolved through consensus and checked by a third reviewer. Validity assessment Two reviewers independently assessed study validity using checklists for RCTs and other study designs from CRD report 4. No specific details of criteria used were reported but use of allocation concealment, sequence generation, blinding and intention to treat analysis were reported. Disagreements were resolved through consensus. Data extraction Data for dichotomous outcomes were extracted to calculate relative risks (RR) or odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Means and standard deviations were extracted for continuous outcomes to calculate the weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% CI. ... |
