| Abstract | PE (Pulmonary embolism, PE) is a common disease, usually caused by blockage of pulmonary artery and its branches due to exogenous or endogenous embolic obstruction. PE always be misdiagnosed in clinical. The aim of this study is to calculate the sensitivity and specificity of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in assessing the resectability of PE. In this study, a meta-analysis of the reported sensitivity and specificity of each study with 95% confidence intervals (CI) was performed. Five studies were included in the meta-analysis. The results indicated that the quality assessment scores ranged from 11 to 13, with a mean study quality score of 12. The sensitivity and specificity values including 95% CI at the patient level were calculated. The sensitivities ranged from 78% to 100%, and the specificity ranged from 99% to 100%. The pooled sensitivity value including 95% CI was 0.83 (0.78-0.88), and with inconsistency (I 2) of 62.8%. The pooled specificity value including 95% CI was 0.99 (0.98-1.00), with inconsistency (I2) of 0.0%. Pooled positive likelihood ratio (PLR) (95% CI) was 70.22 (29.04-169.76), and the pooled negative likelihood ratio (NLR) (95% CI) was 0.19 (0.14-0.25). The overall diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) (95% CI) was 448.98 (163.47-1233.18). The summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) data illustrated that the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.9852. In conclusion, the MRI method may be acts as a potential and assistant method for the PE diagnosis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
