Effect of estrogen replacement therapy on bone and cardiovascular outcomes in women with turner syndrome: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Cintron D, Rodriguez-Gutierrez R, Serrano V, Latortue-Albino P, Erwin PJ, Murad MH. Cintron D, et al. Among authors: erwin pj. Endocrine. 2017 Feb;55(2):366-375. doi: 10.1007/s12020-016-1046-y. Epub 2016 Jul 29. Endocrine. 2017. PMID: 27473099 Review.
Patients with Turner syndrome have adverse bone and cardiovascular outcomes from chronic estrogen deficiency. Hence, long-term estrogen replacement therapy is the cornerstone treatment. The estimates of its effect and optimal use, however, remain uncertain. ...

Does off-pump coronary artery bypass confer any advantage in patients with end-stage renal failure? A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Lim JY, Deo SV, Jung SH, Altarabsheh SE, Erwin PJ, Dillon JJ, Park SJ. Lim JY, et al. Among authors: erwin pj. Heart Lung Circ. 2015 Jan;24(1):55-61. doi: 10.1016/j.hlc.2014.06.005. Epub 2014 Jun 27. Heart Lung Circ. 2015. PMID: 25153358 Review.
While patients undergoing off-pump surgery were extubated earlier (p<0.01), other post-operative events like stroke (p=0.34) and atrial fibrillation (p=0.10) were similar. Mid-term survival (three to five years) was also comparable. CONCLUSION: Patients with end-stage r …
