Good management and improved standards of animal welfare are discussed as important ways reducing the risk infection in farm animals without medication. Increasing evidence from both humans suggests that environments promote wellbeing over stress positive negative emotions can reduce susceptibility to disease and/or lead milder symptoms. We point out, however, relationship between welfare, immunity, is highly complex we caution against claiming more than current shows. The accumulating but sometimes equivocal close links brain, gut microbiome, context known mental physical health humans. This not only provides empirical support for importance good preventative medicine also indicates a variety mechanisms by which directly influence resistance. Finally, outline what still needs be done explore potential effects welfare.

While studies on the health benefits of Tai Chi have sprung up over past four decades, few engaged in collecting global data, estimating developing trends, and conducting reviews from perspective visualization bibliometric analysis. This study aimed to provide a summary scientific outputs research 1980 2020, explore frontiers, identify cooperation networks, track trends highlight emerging hotspots. Relevant publications were downloaded Web Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database between 2020. Bibliometric comparative analysis authors, cited journals, co-cited institutions, countries, references, keywords systematically conducted using CiteSpace software. A total 1078 satisfied search criteria, trend annual related was generally an upward trend, although with some fluctuations. China (503) Harvard University (74) most prolific country institution, respectively. Most researches published journals focus sport sciences, alternative medicine, geriatrics gerontology, rehabilitation. Our results indicated that current concerns difficulties are “Intervention method”, “Targeted therapy”, “Applicable population”, “Risk factors”, “Research quality”. The frontiers promising domains exercise science field preventions rehabilitations “Fall risk”, “Cardiorespiratory disease”, “Stroke”, “Parkinson’s “Depression”, which should receive more attention future.

Many middle-aged and older adults have more than one chronic health condition. It is therefore important to explore the effectiveness of interventions for multiple conditions. Tai Chi widely used in China other countries, many studies examined effect on anxiety depression. However, there are no systematic reviews depression various This review meta-analysis aimed evaluate effects symptoms four conditions: cancer, stroke, heart failure (HF), obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We searched Chinese English databases (Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web Science, National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Science Technology Journal Database (VIP), Wanfang Database, Sinomed) from inception October 2020. Review Manager version 5.2 Stata 12.0 were perform a review. The quality included was evaluated using Cochrane risk bias tool. study registered with PROSPERO database (number CRD42020209594). Of 596 identified, we 25 randomized controlled trials involving 1819 participants. Combined analysis diseases showed statistically significant differences between control groups (SMD −0.99, 95%CI: −1.5, −0.47; P < 0.01) depressive 0.70, −1.01, −0.39; 0.01). Subgroup analyses stroke −0.43, −0.67, −0.18; HF −0.57, −0.8, −0.33; found COPD or cancer. There −0.60, −0.88, −0.32; cancer −0.69, −1.22, −0.17; 0.01), but not HF. Subgroup, sensitivity, meta regression, publication high heterogeneity correlated single quality. Sensitivity that most results had good stability, those unstable; therefore, careful interpretation required. has positive depression, especially patients given weak evidence, this approach substitute psychiatric treatment.

Determining the safety and effectiveness of Tai Chi: a critical overview of 210 systematic reviews of controlled clinical trials

Systematic Reviews, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 11(1)

Опубликована: Дек. 3, 2022

Abstract Background This overview summarizes the best available systematic review (SR) evidence on health effects of Tai Chi. Methods Nine databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, Medline, Web Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese Scientific Journal Database (VIP), Sino-Med, and Wanfang Database) were searched for SRs controlled clinical trials Chi interventions published between Jan 2010 Dec 2020 in any language. Effect estimates extracted from most recent, comprehensive, highest-quality SR each population, condition, outcome. quality was appraised with AMSTAR 2 overall certainty effect GRADE method. Results Of 210 included SRs, 193 only randomized trials, one non-randomized studies interventions, 16 both. Common conditions neurological (18.6%), falls/balance (14.7%), cardiovascular musculoskeletal (11.0%), cancer (7.1%), diabetes mellitus (6.7%). Except stroke, no disease prevention found; however, multiple proxy-outcomes/risks factors evaluated. One hundred fourteen 37 (2 high, 6 moderate, 18 low, 11 critically low quality), representing 59,306 adults. Compared to active and/or inactive controls, 66 114 reported clinically important benefits Chi, 53 an equivalent or marginal benefit, risk adverse events. Eight (7.0%) rated as 43 (37.7%) 36 (31.6%) 27 (23.7%) very due concerns bias (92/114, 80.7%), imprecision (43/114, 37.7%), inconsistency (37/114, 32.5%), publication (3/114, 2.6%). often limited by search strategies, language bias, inadequate consideration clinical, methodological, statistical heterogeneity, poor reporting standards, registered protocol. Conclusions The findings suggest has multidimensional effects, including physical, psychological life a wide range conditions, well multimorbidity. Clinically consistently Parkinson’s disease, falls risk, knee osteoarthritis, back pain, cerebrovascular, diseases hypertension. For higher-quality rigorous primary are required.

The critical domains not satisfied more than half reviews, only 4 evaluated certainty evidence. very high (21.7%) (11%) for chi studies PD stroke, respectively. In PD, yoga, can improve balance, being beneficial increase functional mobility. For patients, better controls enhance motor function independence, but health-related life sleep.

Review Manager 5.4.1 used for data extraction meta-analysis, where standard mean difference (SMD) 95% confidence interval (95%CI) computed. Eight randomized control trials with total 1379 participants included meta-analysis. Six assessed Montreal Cognitive Assessment scores, pooled analysis suggested effective conventional (SMD=0.15, 95%CI: -0.11 0.40, p=0.26). However, Mini-Mental Status Examination more effectively improved reduced rate (SMD=0.36, 0.18 0.54, p<0.01) compared group.

Next, several potential physiological, psychological, neurological perspectives were evaluated based on direct indirect research evidence. We reviewed recent functional magnetic resonance imaging studies, which demonstrated changes brain anatomy function, mainly prefrontal cortex, following practice. Finally, effects emotion/mental depicted with cortex hypothesis that proposed "an immune system mind" indicating role flexible hub regulating individual's The key biomarker among multiple complex neural correlates help individual manage emotions/mental Future needed examine by relationship between executive control (mainly cortex) limbic network (including amygdala, insula, hippocampal gyrus).
