“…A 2015 randomized trial (n522) evaluated whether iron supplementation improved performance in female volleyball players. 2 Participants (mean age 27 years old) had a range of iron status categories including adequate iron (ferritin .100 mg/L+transferrin saturation index .20%, hemoglobin .12 g/dl), absolute iron deficiency (ferritin ,30 mg/L), functional iron deficiency (ferritin 30-99 mg/L; odds ratio ferritin 100-299 mg/L+transferrin saturation index ,20%), and anemia (hemoglobin ,12 g/dL). Eleven participants received 325 mg of oral ferrous sulfate daily for 11 weeks, and 11 participants received no supplementation.…”

“…A 2016 meta-analysis examined the efficacy and safety of magnesium sulfate for neuroprotection in patients at risk for preterm labor with primary end points including CP. 2 Six RCTs and five cohort studies were included in the analysis (N518,655). In all studies, patients were randomized at ,34 weeks' gestation age, with the exception of one trial that included patients up to 37 weeks.…”

finger (Hugo point) for three 5-minute periods, while the control group received a touch on the same area in a similar time format without performing shiatsu massage. The primary outcome was the level of agitation, which was assessed using the Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) before and after the intervention (with blinded researchers as to the type of intervention). RASS scores range on a 10-point scale from +4 to -5, with higher scores indicating greater symptoms of agitation (+45combative to -55unarousable). Shiatsu massage reduced the mean RASS score of agitation by 1 point (95% CI, 0.78-1.3). The control did not demonstrate a reduction in pain compared with placebo. There were no harms or side effects in the study. This RCT was limited by varied medicine administration.A single-center RCT (n558) examined the effectiveness of back massage for reduction of anxiety compared with control in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease requiring noninvasive mechanical ventilation in an ICU in Turkey. 3 Patients had an average age of 71 years old (62% male). Excluded were patients with psychiatric conditions, those receiving anxiolytic medications, and those unable to communicate. The intervention group received a daily 15-minute back, neck, and shoulder massage for 4 days by a single trained researcher. The control group received standard nursing care without massage. Anxiety was measured by the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) before the first intervention and after the fourth. The STAI uses a 1 to 4 scale for 40 questions to create a sum of 0 to 160 (high-er5more severe). Massage demonstrated greater reduction in the mean anxiety score compared with control: Student's t test (a comparison of small means) 5 -2.856; P5.006. No adverse events occurred. This RCT was limited by failure to measure long-term effects, lack of a placebo arm, and lack of blinding participants and data collectors.

“…A single-center, single-blind RCT (n=67) examined the effectiveness of shiatsu massage for agitation in mechanically ventilated patients compared with control. 2 Patients had a Glasgow Coma Scale score greater than seven and received similar pharmacological treatment. The control group mean age was 46 years old, and the intervention group mean age was 52 years old.…”

appeared distressed (no strength of recommendation provided). 2 The NICE guideline recommended continuing use only as long as the child appeared uncomfortable and to consider switching agents if the discomfort was not alleviated.A 2011 clinical report from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommended antipyretics to improve patient comfort noting that temperature reduction alone was not a goal of therapy. 3 The report recommended acetaminophen or ibuprofen, stating that there did not seem to be a substantial difference in efficacy and safety between the two medications (no strength of recommendation of evidence grade provided). The report was created by the AAP committee on drugs and the section on clinical pharmacology and therapeutics without explicit mention of the methodology; the report was reaffirmed by the AAP in 2016.
