    Abstract Introduction: Numerous cases of pneumonia caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) were reported in Wuhan, China. Chest computed tomography (CT) scan is highly important in the diagnosis and follow-up of lung disease treatment. The present meta-analysis was performed to evaluate chest CT scan findings in COVID-19 patients.
    Material and methods: All research steps were taken according to the Meta-Analysis of Observational Studies In Epidemiology (MOOSE) protocol and the final report was based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. We registered this review at the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO, CRD42019127858).
    Results: Forty eligible studies including 4598 patients with COVID-19 were used for meta-analysis. The rate of positive chest CT scan in patients with COVID-19 was 94.5% (95% CI: 91.7-96.3). Bilateral lung involvement, pure ground-glass opacity (GGO), mixed (GGO pulse consolidation or reticular), consolidation, reticular, and presence of nodule findings in chest CT scan of COVID-19 pneumonia patients were respectively estimated to be 79.1% (95% CI: 70.8-85.5), 64.9% (95% CI: 54.1-74.4), 49.2% (95% CI: 35.7-62.8), 30.3% (95% CI: 19.6-43.6), 17.0% (95% CI: 3.9-50.9) and 16.6% (95% CI: 13.6-20.2). The distribution of lung lesions in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia was peripheral (70.0% [95% CI: 57.8-79.9]), central (3.9% [95% CI: 1.4-10.6]), and peripheral and central (31.1% [95% CI: 19.5-45.8]). The pulmonary lobes most commonly involved were the right lower lobe (86.5% [95% CI:57.7-96.8]) and left lower lobe (81.0% [95% CI: 50.5-94.7]).
    Conclusions: The most important outcomes in chest CT scan of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia were bilateral lung involvement, GGO or mixed (GGO pulse consolidation or reticular) patterns, thickened interlobular septa, vascular enlargement, air bronchogram sign, peripheral distribution, and left and right lower lobes involvement. Our study showed that chest CT scan has high sensitivity in the diagnosis of COVID-19, and may therefore serve as a standard method for diagnosis of COVID-19.

    Abstract Infertility is a serious health issue in the world affecting approximately 8-10% of couples worldwide. The meta-analysis study was performed to assess the prevalence and etiologic factors associated with infertility in Iran. We made sure that the implementation of study and reporting the results were consistent with the MOOSE and PRISMA guidelines, respectively. All stages of the research were conducted by two authors, and the disagreement at each stage of the research was resolved by consensus. On January 1, 2020, we started a detailed literature search on international online databases, and Iranian Online databases, as well as specialized journals, several authentic international publishers and Google Scholar. We reviewed the reference list of identified articles for missed articles and then searched online for them. Data analysis was performed to estimate the prevalence using a random effects model. The lifetime infertility prevalence was found to be 11.3% [95% confidence interval (CI): 8.6-14.7] and the current infertility was evaluated to be 3.7% (95% CI: 3.2-4.3). The prevalence of primary infertility (based on 45 articles consisting of 51,021 samples) as well as secondary infertility (based on 13 articles consisting of 35,683 samples) in Iran were estimated to be 18.3% (95% CI: 15.4-21.6) and 2.5% (95% CI: 1.6-4.0), respectively. The prevalence of female, male, both and unexplained causes was estimated to be 32.0% (95% CI: 27.6-36.8), 43.3% (95% CI: 38.2-48.6), 12.5% (95% CI: 9.6-16.2) and 13.6% (95% CI: 10.2-17.8), respectively. The prevalence of causes related to ovulation, uterine tubes, and endometriosis in infertile women was estimated to be 54.0% (95% CI: 45.6-62.2), 15.5% (95% CI: 11.3-21.0), 6.2% (95% CI: 3.5-10.6), and 5.4% (95% CI: 2.5-11.3), respectively. In summary, the estimate of infertility burden in Iran did not change between 1990 and 2017 and its prevalence remains high. This research presents a unified and up-to-date overview regarding the burden of infertility in Iran.

    Abstract Background: Recent studies have suggested the role of primary laboratory tests in addition to clinical symptoms for patients suspected to have coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which play a significant role in the diagnosis of COVID-19. However, the results of these studies are contradictory. The present study was conducted to evaluate biochemical, serological, and immunological tests for the diagnosis of COVID-19 patients.
    Methods: This study was presented in accordance with the PRISMA protocol. This protocol is registered with the code CRD42019145410 in PROSPERO. We conducted a comprehensive literature search in databases, including Web of Science, PubMed/Medline, CINAHL Scopus, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, Science Direct, and EBSCO to find citations from the beginning of January 2019 until the beginning of April 2020 without any restrictions.
    Results: Finally, 51 studies, including 5,490 COVID-19 patients, were included in the present metaanalysis. The prevalence of different factors observed in laboratory findings was as follows: the prevalence of lymphopenia in patients with COVID-19 accounted for 51.6% (95% CI: 44.0-59.1), elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) was 63.6% (95% CI: 57.0-69.8), elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) was 62.5% (95% CI: 50.1-73.5), elevated tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) was 28.7% (95% CI: 9.0-62.1), elevated serum amyloid-A level was 74.7% (95% CI: 50.0-89.7), elevated procalcitonin level was 72.6% (95% CI: 58.1-83.5), elevated interleukin-6 level was 59.9% (95% CI: 48.2-70.5), reduced CD3 level was 68.3% (95% CI: 50.1-82.2), reduced CD4 level was 62.0% (95% CI: 51.1- 71.6), elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level accounted for 53.1% (95% CI: 43.6-62.4), elevated brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) accounted for 48.9% (95% CI: 30.4-67.7), reduced albumin and reduced pre-albumin levels in patients with COVID-19 were estimated to be 54.7% (95% CI: 38.1-70.2) and 49.0% (95% CI: 26.6-71.8), and D-dimer level was 44.9% (95% CI: 31.0-59.6).
    Conclusion: The results show lymphopenia, elevated ESR level, elevated CRP level, elevated serum amyloid-A, elevated TNFα, elevated procalcitonin level, elevated interleukin-6 level, reduced CD3, reduced CD4, elevated BNP, elevated LDH, reduced albumin, reduced pre-albumin, and elevated Ddimer levels as the most common findings at the time of admission.

    Abstract Although several studies have shown that each of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) components can be a risk factor for erosive esophagitis (EE), the association between MetS and EE is still a challenging subject, as studies about this association have shown inconsistent results. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the association between MetS and EE. In this study, we followed the MOOSE protocol and the PRISMA guidelines for reporting the results. Web of Science (ISI), Cochrane Library (Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews - CDSR), EMBASE, Scopus, Science Direct, PubMed/Medline, EBSCO, CINAHL, and Google Scholar search engine were searched for articles published until January 2021. Heterogeneity between studies was estimated by I2 index and Q test. All analyses were performed using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis Software. Finally, 12 studies entered the meta-analysis process after qualitative assessment. MetS was significantly associated with increased risk of EE (OR=1.488 [95 % CI: 1.352-1.638], P<0.001; Heterogeneity: I2= 55.57, P<0.001) in 12 studies with a sample size of 45285 (12825 cases and 29377 controls). In subgroup analysis based on types of studies (P=0.832), MetS diagnostic criteria (P=0.083) and quality of studies (P=0.612), no significant association was found. Sensitivity analysis showed that the overall estimation of effect size is still robust after omission of individual studies from the meta-analysis. Publication bias based on the Begg's test (P=0.945) and Egger's test (P=0.753) were not significant. MetS increases the risk of EE compared to control groups. Future studies should examine if MetS treatment reduces the risk of EE.

    Abstract Background: The relationship between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and Barrett's esophagus (BE) is still a challenging issue, and inconsistent results have been reported in different studies. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the relationship between MetS and BE.
    Methods: In this study, we followed the MOOSE protocol and results were reported according to the PRISMA guidelines. All study steps were performed independently by two authors. If necessary, the dispute was resolved by consultation with a third author. The search strategy is designed to find published studies. Comprehensive search was done in the following databases until July 2019: Cochrane Library, PubMed/Medline, Web of Science, Science Direct, EMBASE, Scopus, CINAHL, EBSCO, and Google Scholar search engine. All analyses were performed using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis Software Ver.2, while p-value lower than 0.05 was considered significant.
    Results: In 14 studies with a sample size of 108,416, MetS significantly increased the risk of BE (OR = 1.354; 95% CI: 1.145-1.600; P < 0.001; Heterogeneity: I
    Conclusion: MetS increases the risk of BE compared to control groups. The results of this study can help health practitioners by identifying a treatable risk factor for the most important risk factor for esophageal carcinoma (ie, BE). Future studies should examine whether treatment for MetS reduces the risk of BE.

    Abstract Background: One of the most frequently encountered endocrinopathy in women of reproductive age is polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Recent studies have reported varied prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in women with PCOS. The aim of this study is to determine if the women with PCOS are at a higher risk of MetS.
    Method: The present systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted according to the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. To collect articles, we searched online databases of PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, Science Direct, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, EBSCO and Google scholar search engine and the reference list of the retrieved articles using MeSH keywords of "metabolic syndrome", "woman" and "polycystic ovary syndrome" without time limit until October 2018.

    Abstract Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to the death of many people worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared vaccine resistance as one of the greatest health threats in the world even before the COVID-19 epidemic. The aim of this study was to evaluate the acceptance of COVID-19 vaccine in pregnant women.
    Method: We performed this systematic review and meta-analysis in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. We applied the standard search strategy to the PubMed/Medline, Web of Science (ISI), Scopus, Science Direct, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and EBSCO databases, and the Google Scholar search engine. Heterogeneity between studies was relatively high and therefore meta-analyses were performed based on random effects model with 95% CI using STATA version 16.
    Results: In 16 articles with a sample size of 19219 pregnant women, the acceptance of COVID-19 vaccine was estimated 53.46% (95%CI: 47.64%-59.24%). Subgroup analysis was performed based on continent (p = 0.796), data collection method (p = 0.450) and meta-regression based on the month of the study (P<0.001), and only meta-regression was significant based on the month of the study. The effect of some variables such as graviad (OR = 1.02 [95%CI: 0.90-1.16]), maternal age was (OR = 1.02 [95%CI: 0.93-1.11]) and history of influenza vaccination (OR = 0.87 [95%CI: 0.71-1.06]) on COVID-19 vaccine acceptance was evaluated, which was not significant.
    Conclusion: The prevalence of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance in pregnant women was 53.46%, which was much lower than the general COVID-19 vaccination. Therefore, necessary interventions should be taken to increase the acceptance of the vaccine, address safety concerns and educate about it.

    Abstract Background: The impact of yoga on the quality of life and fatigue in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) has shown various results in different reports. As a result, performing a systematic review and meta-analysis to guide physicians and patients seems necessary. The present study was carried out to evaluate the effect of yoga intervention on the quality of life and fatigue in patients with MS.
    Method: The present study was designed based on PRISMA guidelines from their inception until October 2019. Two researchers independently performed all steps. We searched several international online databases such as PubMed/Medilne, Scopus, Science Direct, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, Web of Science, CINAHL, CAM-Quest, CAMbase, IndMED and Google Scholar search engine. The data were analyzed using Comprehensive Meta-analysis Software Ver. 2, while P < 0.05 was considered significant. The protocol of this meta-analysis was registered at PROSPERO with number identifier: CRD42019127168.
    Results: Overall, 693 patients with MS (yoga (n = 209), exercise (n = 298), control (n = 186) groups) were examined in ten randomized controlled trials (RCTs). According to this meta-analysis, the effect of yoga intervention on fatigue in patients with MS was significantly better compared to the typical MS care group [SMD = -0.872; 95%CI: -1.467 to -0.277, p = 0.004], and did not show significant difference compared to the exercise group [SMD = -0.093; 95%CI: -0.353 to 0.167, p = 0.482]. The effect of yoga intervention on the overall quality of life (compared to the typical MS care group: [SMD = 0.710; 95%CI: -0.172 to 1.592, p = 0.114], and compared to the exercise group: [SMD = -0.453; 95%CI: -0.233 to 1.138, p = 0.195]), physical component (compared to the typical MS care group: [SMD = 0.281; 95%CI: -0.157 to 0.719, p = 0.209], and compared to the exercise group: [SMD = 0.074; 95%CI: -0.125 to 0.273, p = 0.467]), psychological component (compared to the typical MS care group: [SMD = 0.250; 95% CI: - 0.132 to 0.631, p = 0.199], and compared to the exercise group: [SMD = - 0.270; 95%CI: -0.813 to 0.272, p = 0.329]), sexual function (compared to the typical MS care group: [SMD = 0.438; 95%CI: -0.350 to 1.226, p = 0.276]), and cognitive function (compared to the typical MS care group: [SMD = -0.390; 95%CI: -0.008 to 0.789, p = 0.055]) in patients with MS was not significant.
    Conclusion: Yoga is a simple exercise for patients with MS that is capable of decreasing fatigue in these patients.
