    Abstract Background: The symptoms of pulmonary sarcoidosis may lead to fatigue, excessive daytime sleepiness, poor sleep quality, and a decrease in quality of life in these patients.
    Objectives: This study was designed to evaluate the effects of oral melatonin on sleep disorders of patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis.
    Methods: A randomized, single-blinded clinical trial was conducted on patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis. Eligible patients were randomly allocated into melatonin and control groups. Patients in the melatonin group were given 3 mg melatonin one hour before bedtime for three months. Sleep quality, daytime sleepiness, fatigue status, and quality of life were assessed applying General Sleep Disturbance Scale (GSDS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS), and the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS), respectively, as well as the 12-item Short Form Survey (SF-12) scores at the baseline and three months after treatment.
    Results: There was a significant change in the GSDS (P < 0.001), PSQI (P < 0.001), ESS (P = 0.002), and FAS (P < 0.001) scores, which were decreased, compared to those of the control group. After intervention¸ global physical health and global mental health raw scores were improved comparing to the control group (P = 0.006, P = 0.02, respectively). The 12-item Short Form Survey evaluation showed that there was a significant difference between the melatonin (3.38 ± 4.61) and control (0.55 ± 7.25) groups in PCS-12 score after three months of therapy (P = 0.02).
    Conclusions: Our findings showed that supplemental melatonin could significantly improve sleep problems, quality of life, and excessive daytime sleepiness in sarcoidosis patients.

    Abstract Background and purpose: Though controversial, many clinical trials have been conducted to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) in COVID-19 cases. Therefore, a systematic review and meta-analysis have been performed to evaluate the efficacy of IVIG in the treatment of COVID-19 patients.
    Experimental approach: A systematic search was performed in electronic databases and preprint servers up to November 20, 2021. Since substantial heterogeneity was expected, a random-effects model was applied to pool effect size from included studies to calculate the standardized mean differences (SMDs) for the continuous variables and relative risks (RRs) for the dichotomous variable with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
    Findings/results: Five randomized clinical trials and seven cohort studies were analyzed among the 12 eligible studies with a total of 2,156 patients. The pooled RR of mortality was 0.77 (CI 0.59-1.01,
    Conclusion and implications: This meta-analysis found that the IVIG therapy was not statistically different from the standard care group. Mortality, ICU admission, mechanical ventilation, length of hospital stay, and length of ICU stay were not significantly improved among IVIG recipients. However, statistical indifference is not equal to clinical indifference.
