Fifteenth Biannual Report of the Cochrane Haematological Malignancies Group—Focus on Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma

Abstract

This fifteenth biannual report of the Cochrane Haematological Malignancies Group (CHMG) highlights recently published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in the field of hemato-oncology, covering the publication period from October 2011 to May 2012. Implications for clinical practice and methodological aspects are the main principles for selecting trials for this report. Studies were identified by electronic search of MEDLINE using a broad search filter that covers all topics in hemato-oncology combined with a highly sensitive search filter for randomized trials ( Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions ).
