Application effect of lattice laser in facial rejuvenation: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Various techniques have been applied in facial rejuvenation and lattice laser is the most accepted. However, the application effect of lattice laser in facial rejuvenation is unclear. This study aims to evaluate the application effect of lattice laser in facial rejuvenation. METHODS:Randomized controlled trials of lattice laser in facial rejuvenation will be searched in PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang, the Chongqing VIP Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Database, and China biomedical literature database from inception to July 2020. And Baidu Scholar, International Clinical Trials Registry Platform, Google Scholar, and Chinese Clinical Trials Registry will be searched to obtain more relevant studies comprehensively. Two researchers will perform data extraction and risk of bias assessment independently. Statistical analysis will be conducted in RevMan 5.3. RESULTS:This study will sum up the present evidence so far by exploring the application effect of lattice laser in facial rejuvenation. CONCLUSIONS:The findings of the study will provide helpful evidence for the application effect of lattice laser in facial rejuvenation, promoting clinical practice, and further scientific research. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION:The private information from individuals will not publish. This systematic review also will not involve endangering participant rights. Ethical approval is not required. The results may be published in a peer-reviewed journal or disseminated in relevant conferences. OSF REGISTRATION NUMBER:DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/QF6H5.

Project description:BackgroundPeripheral facial paralysis is a rapid unilateral facial paralysis or paralysis of unknown etiology. Nearly 30% of patients leave sequela that have a negative impact on the patient's quality of life, both physically and psychologically. As its safety, convenience and effectiveness, Kinesio taping has been gradually used in the rehabilitation of peripheral facial paralysis. However, whether Kinesio taping is effective for peripheral facial paralysis is still unknown. The purpose of this systematic review (SR) and meta-analysis will summarize the current evidence of Kinesio taping used as an intervention for peripheral facial paralysis.Methods and analysisWe will search the following electronic databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and controlled clinical trials (CCTs) to evaluate the effectiveness of Kinesio taping in treating peripheral facial paralysis: China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Date, SinoMed, Technology Periodical Database (VIP), PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and The Cochrane Library. Each database will be searched from inception to April 2020. Studies that present clear descriptions of Kinesio taping in treating peripheral facial paralysis administration are published in peer-reviewed journals in any languages and are published in full will be taken into consideration. The entire process will include study selection, data extraction, risk of bias assessment and meta-analyses. Assessment of risk of bias and data synthesis will be conducted using Review Manager 5.3 software.ResultsThe current evidence on the Kinesio taping for managing peripheral facial paralysis will be illustrated using subjective reports and objective measures of performance. The primary outcome is the effective rate. Secondary outcomes include House-Brackmann scale, Portmann score, facial nerve conduction velocity, Facial Disability Index, Facial Disability Index include Facial Function score and social Function score.ConclusionThis protocol will present evidence on the efficacy of Kinesio taping in relieving peripheral facial paralysis.Ethics and disseminationSince all the data used in this SR and meta-analysis have been published, ethical approval is not required for this review. The results of this SR will be published in a peer-reviewed journal or presented at conferences. INPLASY ID:: (INPLASY2020100008).

Project description:IntroductionTakotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a sudden reversible weakening of the left ventricle function induced by severe stress and resembles many features as acute coronary syndrome. Even though many guidelines had been published about TTS, there is no consensus regarding the long-term treatment. Aspirin is one of the most common prescribed medicines at discharge for patients with the intention to reduce thrombus events and improve the overall prognosis. However, existing studies yielded conflicting results concerning its effects. This study aims to evaluate the impact of long-term maintenance treatment of aspirin in TTS and provides insights in clinical management.Methods and analysisAfter searching through electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, National Library of Medicine Gateway, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP), grey literatures, conference abstract and trial registries for clinical studies investigating the impact of aspirin on patients with TTS, a systemic review and meta-analysis will be conducted. The search will be limited from inception of each database to 1 August 2020. The outcomes including all-cause death, TTS recurrence, stroke, transient ischaemic attack or myocardial infarction at 30-day and 5-year follow-up will be examined. Risk of bias will be assessed by Newcastle-Ottawa quality assessment scale for observational studies and Cochrane Effective Practice and Organization of Care evaluation tool for interventional studies. Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluations method will be applied to assess the quality of evidence. If available, the effects of aspirin on the above outcomes for patients with TTS will be evaluated using random-effect modelling with relative risk at 95% CIs. Subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis will also be performed when possible.Ethics and disseminationEthics approval was not required due to the retrospective nature of the study. Results of the review will be published in a peer-reviewed journal.Prospero registration numberCRD42020212729.
