Background: Spinal Cord Injury is a severely disabling disease. In the process of Spinal Cord Injury rehabilitation treatment, improving patients’ walking ability, improving their self-care ability, and enhancing patients’ self-esteem is an important aspect of their return to society, which can also reduce the cost of patients, so the rehabilitation of lower limbs is very important. The lower limb exoskeleton robot is a bionic robot designed according to the principles of robotics, mechanism, bionics, control theory, communication technology, and information processing technology, which can be worn on the lower limb of the human body and complete specific tasks under the user's control. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the lower limb exoskeleton on the improvement of gait function in patients with spinal cord injury. Methods: The following electronic databases will be searched from inception to January 2022: PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, Scopus, EBSCO, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, Weipu Electronics. In addition, reference lists of the included studies were manually searched to identify additional relevant studies. Randomized controlled trials were collected to examine the effect of lower limb exoskeletons on lower limb functional recovery in spinal cord injury patients. We will consider inclusion, select high-quality articles for data extraction and analysis, and summarize the intervention effect of lower limb exoskeletons on the upper limb function of spinal cord injury patients. Two reviewers will screen titles, abstracts, and full texts independently according to inclusion criteria; Data extraction and risk of bias assessment were performed in the included studies. We will use a hierarchy of recommended assessment, development, and assessment methods to assess the overall certainty of the evidence and report findings accordingly. Endnote X8 will be applied in selecting the study, Review Manager 5.3 will be applied in analyzing and synthesizing. Results: The results will provide evidence for judging whether lower limb exoskeletons are effective and safe in improving lower limb function in patients with spinal cord injury. Conclusion: Our study will provide reliable evidence for the effect of lower limb exoskeletons on the improvement of lower limb function in spinal cord injury patients.

“…If p > 0.10, I 2 < 50%, which indicates that the studies are homogeneous, fixed effect model analysis should be selected. If p < 0.10, I 2 > 50%, which indicates heterogeneity among the studies, random-effect model analysis should be selected [25]. The level of meta-analysis is set to p < 0.05.…”

Background: Allergic diseases are a public health problem with the largest number of patients and the widest age distribution. Chronic urticaria (CU) is a common clinical allergic disease. Bilastine is effective in the treatment of CU, especially skin wind masses and erythema. The purpose of this study was to systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of Bilastine in the treatment of CU symptoms and to provide an evidence-based reference for clinical rational drug use. Methods: PubMed, Scopus, the Cochrane Library, Embase, EBSCO, and other databases were searched by computer to collect the trials on the effect of bilastine on patients with CU. The retrieval time limit was established until November 2021. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and evaluated the risk of bias in the included study. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan5.4 software. Results: A total of 7 studies were included, including 975 patients. Meta-analysis results showed that compared to the control group, bilastine significantly improved the skin quality of life index, Total Symptom Score (TSS), and weekly urticaria activity score. The skin quality of life index DLQI score (MD = −4.98, 95% CI: −8.09 to −1.86, p = 0.002), skin symptom score TSS (MD = −1.62, 95% CI −2.29 to −0.94, p < 0.00001), the number of hives in a week UAS-7 score (MD = −25.28, 95% CI −32.36 to −18.19, p < 0.00001), and the differences were statistically significant. Conclusions: Bilastine has a better therapeutic effect on CU and can also significantly improve the clinical symptoms and quality of life of CU.

“…Once we looked up the review articles on KT published over the past 5 years through the Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE) (accessed via PubMed), a total of 52 studies were identified. Most of 52 studies are on cerebral palsy [13][14][15], low back pain [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23], ankle functional performance [24][25][26], knee osteoarthritis (OA) [27][28][29][30][31][32][33], shoulder pain and disability [34][35][36][37][38], breast lymphedema [7,39], rehabilitation after stroke [40][41][42] and so on; however, there are only four studies related to edema [43][44][45][46]. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to review the literature on KT for reducing edema caused by musculoskeletal disorders and investigate whether the use of KT have any effects on controlling edema.…”

Athletic tape Edema Musculoskeletal diseases SwellingBackground: The application of Kinesio tape (KT) has become an alternative treatment for the reduction of edema owing to its distinct characteristics that mimic skin behavior. Although many studies have found that KT application has a positive effect on edema related to breast cancer and rehabilitation following mandibular third molar surgery, there is little evidence to support the use of KT for musculoskeletal injuries. Objects:The purpose of this study was to review the literature related to KT application for reducing edema caused by musculoskeletal disorders.Methods: A literature search (July 2022) was performed on PubMed for articles published between January 2012 and June 2022. The following keywords were used: "Kinesio taping," "Kinesio tape," "swelling," and "edema," with different combinations and derivations. Only articles available in English were included in this study.Results: Among 68 identified studies, seven met our search strategy and criteria and were included in the literature review. Five of these studies investigated musculoskeletal disorders of the knee joint; two of them reported that KT application had a positive effect on edema measured using perimetry following total knee replacement and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. However, the KT application did not improve swelling in patients with acute lateral ankle sprains. Pediatric patients with acute proximal phalangeal joint sprain experienced a more significant improvement in the reduction of swelling than the group using a splint. Conclusion:This literature review found discrepant evidence to support using KT for edema control in musculoskeletal disorders. Further research is needed to determine the effectiveness of KT for controlling edema following musculoskeletal injuries.
