Cancer-related fatigue in patients treated with mistletoe extracts: a systematic review and meta-analysis

CONCLUSION: Treatment with mistletoe extracts shows a moderate effect on cancer-related fatigue of similar size to physical activity. These results need to be confirmed by more placebo-controlled trials. Future trials should investigate different treatment durations and their effect on cancer-related fatigue in post-treatment cancer survivors.TRIAL REGISTRATION: This meta-analysis has been registered under the PROSPERO registration number CRD42020191967 on October 7, 2020.PMID:35239008 | DOI:10.1007/s00520-022-06921-x
