06; 95 % CI 0.01-0.54; p = 0.012) and 'mild' (adjusted OR 0.15; 95 % CI 0.03-0.85; p = 0.032) eczema were less likely to use CAM than those with 'very severe eczema'. CONCLUSION CAM use was prevalent among children with AE. Its use was significantly associated with AE severity from a parental perspective. Healthcare providers may need to enquire parents about CAM use for their child during routine clinic appointment. BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE In the current meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs), the effects of probiotic supplementation on mental health, biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress in patients with psychiatric disorders were assessed. METHODS The following databases were search up to February 2019 PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Google scholar and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. RESULTS Twelve studies were included in the current meta-analysis. The findings demonstrated that probiotic supplementation resulted in a significant reduction in Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) [Weighted Mean Difference (WMD) -9.60; 95 % CI -10.08, -9.11]. In addition, a significant reduction in C-reactive protein (CRP) (WMD -1.59; 95 % CI -2.22, -0.97), interleukin 10 (IL-10) (WMD -0.29; 95 % CI -0.48, -0.11) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels (WMD -0.38; 95 % CI -0.63, -0.13) was found after probiotics supplementation. No significant change was seen in Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) score (WMD -11.17; 95 % CI -24.99, 2.65), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) (WMD -0.12; 95 % CI -0.20, -0.05), IL-1B (WMD -0.34; 95 % CI -1.43, 0.74), IL-6 (WMD 0.03; 95 % CI -0.32, 0.38), nitric oxide (NO) (WMD -0.54; 95 % CI -2.16, 1.08), glutathione (GSH) (WMD 46.79; 95 % CI -17.25, 110.83) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) levels (WMD 15.21; 95 % CI -59.96, 90.37) after probiotics supplementation. CONCLUSION Overall, the current meta-analysis demonstrated that taking probiotic by patients with psychiatric disorders had beneficial effects on HAMD, CRP, IL-10 and MDA levels, but it did not affect BDI score, other markers of inflammation and oxidative stress. OBJECTIVES Vitamin D blood levels have been shown to influence acute chemotherapy toxicities. Therefore, it was investigated whether it is an intrinsic factor influencing acute skin toxicity in patients receiving radiotherapy for breast cancer. DESIGN/SETTING In a total of 107 patients receiving radiotherapy for resected breast cancer, vitamin D and selenium blood levels were determined. Correlations between these levels and skin toxicity due to radiotherapy (CTC scores, Skindex scores) were investigated as primary endpoints. Furthermore, the statistical relationship between skin toxicity, vitamin D and selenium blood levels with patient and disease characteristics such as tumor stage, breast size, skin thickness, blood cell counts as well as individual quality of life measured by SEIQoL-Q was analyzed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES/RESULTS In our patient collective large deficiencies of vitamin D (mean level 20.9 ng/ml, normal range 36-60 ng/ml) and selenium (mean level 76.1 μg/l, normal range 74-139 μg/l) were found. No correlations between skin toxicities, vitamin D and selenium blood levels were found. Neither did these blood levels correlate with any tumor or patient characteristics nor with individual quality of life. As expected by clinical experience, skin toxicities correlated significantly with breast size and skin thickness. CONCLUSIONS In this study, radiotherapy skin toxicity was not influenced by vitamin D or selenium blood levels. On the basis of our data we cannot recommend vitamin D or selenium supplementation as a prophylaxis for skin toxicity. Nevertheless, large numbers of breast cancer patients have substantial deficiencies of both substances. Therefore, supplementation may be reasonable for other reasons. OBJECTIVE Our review summarizes published literature of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) used for the treatment of acute bronchitis in children. BACKGROUND Acute bronchitis is one of the most frequent pediatric diseases and has high prevalence for in- and outpatient care. Acute bronchitis is mainly a viral-caused infection, but a high and inappropriate use of antibiotics has been demonstrated in many countries. As CAM therapies might reduce the use of antibiotics and can complement conventional therapies in children, they could be an appropriate treatment option. METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted using general and complementary and alternative medicine (CAM)-specific databases. A search term including 65 CAM-associated definitions was applied. RESULTS Literature search revealed 309 articles, whereby 18 articles hit search criteria. These clinical trials were subgrouped into the categories herbal medicine, anthroposophic medicine and homeopathy. The most often studied approaches are herbal remedies, in particular the Pelargonium sidoides extract, EPs® 7630. Its efficacy was demonstrated in three placebo-controlled trials and two observational studies. Anthroposophic approaches (mainly ribwort-containing remedies) were investigated in two controlled trials and three observational studies. Two studies were found investigating the homeopathic remedies Monapax® and Droperteel®. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/h-1152-dihydrochloride.html CONCLUSION Study results indicate a favorable effect of investigated CAM approaches. However, only three of 18 studies were randomized controlled trials (RCTs), so a reliable statement on effectiveness was not possible and further RCTs are indispensable. OBJECTIVES To systematically review Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) for the management of menopause-related vasomotor symptoms (VMS) to 1) identify those that include Natural Health Products (NHPs); 2) identify which NHPs were included and the evidence supporting the recommendation for the place in therapy; and 3) compare methodological quality of the CPGs. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, BMJ Best Practice, DynaMed Plus and websites of gynecological and menopausal societies were searched (Jan 2000-Nov 2018). Records were screened to identify CPGs that were published in English, since 2000 and were for use in North America. CPGs were reviewed for inclusion of NHPs. Data regarding NHPs (evidence, recommendation) were extracted and analyzed. CPGs were critically appraised using the AGREE II tool. RESULTS Five of six CPGs that met general inclusion criteria included NHPs. Black cohosh, isoflavones, soy food/extracts and phytoestrogens were included in all five CPGs. Comparative analysis of recommendations and level of supporting evidence revealed differences.
