BACKGROUND: Healthy aging is a pressing public health priority. Focusing on what people do every day may be a meaningful approach to lifestyle change, suggesting a need for occupation therapy interventions to promote healthy aging. A preliminary database search was conducted, and no current or underway systematic or scoping reviews on the topic were identified. Developing an overview of studies of occupational therapy interventions to promote healthy aging is a necessary first step to understanding the existing knowledge and increasing the impact of future interventions...

BACKGROUND: Exercise-associated secondary amenorrhea results in estrogen deficiency, which may lead to dysfunction in estrogen's normal cardioprotective pathways. Estrogen may be essential in a woman's endothelial adaptations to exercise. The objective of this review was to assess the association between secondary amenorrhea in physically active women and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. METHODS AND RESULTS: A literature search was performed in January 2023 and updated in August 2023 of the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (EBSCOhost), Cochrane Library, Embase (Ovid), MEDLINE (Ovid), SPORTDiscus (EBSCOhost), and Scopus from inception to present with no date or language limitations...

BACKGROUND: Tardive Dyskinesia (TD) is a neurological disorder characterized by involuntary movements, often caused by dopamine receptor antagonists. Vesicular Monoamine Transporter 2 (VMAT2) inhibitors, such as valbenazine and deutetrabenazine, have emerged as promising therapies for TD and several clinical trials have shown their efficacy. This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety profile of VMAT2 inhibitors, focusing on a recent trial conducted in the Asian population. METHODS: We reviewed the PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase database, and clinicaltrials...

Tranexamic acid (TXA) is an essential procoagulant drug used in various intra- and postoperative situations. Its efficacy and safety profile in obese cases undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is still unresolved. Therefore, this meta-analysis evaluated and investigated the current intra- and postoperative effects and hazards of TXA on patients undergoing LSG. As for methodology, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and PubMed were thoroughly searched for relevant studies. Retrieved results were prepared for screening through Endnote, helping to identify eligible studies...

As a novel tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), pyrotinib can irreversibly block dual pan-ErbB receptors and has been used in the treatment of advanced or metastatic human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer. However, there are limited data on the use of pyrotinib in early breast cancer. Therefore, the present meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pyrotinib in the neoadjuvant setting for patients with early-stage or locally advanced HER2-positive breast cancer...

Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a chronic space-occupying lesion formed by blood accumulation between the arachnoid membrane and the dura mater. Atorvastatin is of increasing clinical interest for CSDH. We performed a meta-analysis of published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and used objective data as the primary outcomes to provide an evidence-based analysis of the efficacy of atorvastatin for CSDH treatment. Databases of MEDLINE (via PubMed), EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, Scopus, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Cqvip database (CQVIP), and Wanfang database were systematically searched for RCTs reporting the use of atorvastatin for CSDH treatment...

Although granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) reduces the incidence, duration, and severity of neutropenia, its prophylactic use for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains controversial due to a theoretically increased risk of relapse. The present study investigated the effects of G-CSF as primary prophylaxis for AML with remission induction therapy. A detailed literature search for related studies was performed using PubMed, Ichushi-Web, and the Cochrane Library. Data were independently extracted and assessed by two reviewers...

This review aims to systematically evaluate the association between hypertension and pressure ulcer (PU). PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library were searched for studies from their inception until September 12, 2023. Literature search, data extraction, and quality assessment were conducted independently by two researchers. The random-effects model was used to calculate the combined odds ratio (OR) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) of hypertension in patients with PU; subgroup analyses were performed to explore the source of between-study heterogeneity; sensitivity analysis was used to test the robust of the combined result; and funnel plot and Egger's test were used to assess the publication bias...
