Current state of research on exercise for the treatment of myasthenia gravis: A scoping review
CONCLUSION: This scoping review provides an overview of the evidence concerning exercise treatment for MG. Key gaps in evidence include a limited number of participants, complex interventions, variability in outcome selection, and insufficient reporting in publications. The promotion of exercise treatment for MG still encounters several obstacles. A larger population, rigorous study design and conduction, standardized interventions and outcomes, and standardized reporting are essential.PMID:38458542 | DOI:10.1016/j.ctim.2024.103033 (Source: Complementary Therapies in Medicine)

A feasibility study on indoor therapeutic horticulture to alleviate sleep and anxiety problems: The impact of plants and activity choice on its therapeutic effect
CONCLUSION: The above findings provided some basis for the potential benefits of selecting plants and activities based on psychological care needs in the development of TH plans. Future research that expands upon the current project is warranted. A larger sample size is beneficial for obtaining more powerful statistical results.PMID:38452859 | DOI:10.1016/j.ctim.2024.103032 (Source: Complementary Therapies in Medicine)

Expert consensus-based clinical recommendation for an integrative anthroposophic treatment approach to acute tonsillitis in childhood
CONCLUSION: The clinical recommendation for acute tonsillitis in children aims to simplify everyday patient care and provide decision-making support when considering and prescribing anthroposophic therapies. Moreover, the recommendation makes anthroposophic medicine more transparent for physicians, parents, and maybe political stakeholders as well.PMID:38432580 | DOI:10.1016/j.ctim.2024.103031 (Source: Complementary Therapies in Medicine)

Efficacy and safety of chinese herbal foot bath for hypertension: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: The meta-analysis suggests that Chinese herbal foot bath combined with conventional treatment may effectively manage hypertension, with few adverse effects. However, high-quality clinical trials are still needed to confirm these findings due to methodological weaknesses in randomization, blinding, long-term follow-up, and independent testing for the purity and potency of herbs.PMID:38401689 | DOI:10.1016/j.ctim.2024.103029 (Source: Complementary Therapies in Medicine)
