Pharmacologic therapies in patients with exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a systematic review with meta-analysis.
The authors evaluated the comparative effectiveness and adverse events of pharmacologic interventions for adults with exacerbation of COPD. Sixty-eight randomized controlled trials were selected for evaluation and data extraction. They found that antibiotics and systemic corticosteroids reduced treatment failure in adults with mild to severe exacerbation of COPD.

Mind the gaps: clinical trial concepts to address unanswered questions in aeroallergen immunotherapy-an NIAID/AHRQ workshop.
A joint AHRQ and National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAAD) workshop was held to develop trial concepts that could improve the use and effectiveness of aeroallergen immunotherapy (AAIT). Four different expert groups were formed to propose different study designs. These study designs would create clinical trials of long duration and would need highly characterized patient populations.
