A hypotensive protocol of inspiratory muscle strength training: Systematic review and meta-analysis with trial sequential analysis.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the hypotensive effect and optimal protocol of inspiratory muscle resistance training (IMST). Randomized controlled trials using IMST to lower blood pressure (BP) were retrieved from 12 databases as of July 2022. A meta-analysis of BP and heart rate variability (HRV) was performed and a trial sequence analysis was performed using trial sequential analysis (TSA) software.

Patient-reported outcome measures in functional dyspepsia: a systematic review and COSMIN analysis.

Background: Functional dyspepsia (FD) as a type of disorders of brain-gut interaction (DBGI), patient self-reporting of its symptoms becomes an important component of clinical outcome assessment. We performed a systematic review using Consensus Based Standards for the Selection of Health Measurement Instruments (COSMIN) guidelines to identify the best available patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) of FD.

Methods: The study was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA).

Interventions for reducing blood pressure in prehypertension: A meta-analysis.

Background: We aimed to address which interventions best control blood pressure (BP) and delay disease progression in prehypertension and to give recommendations for the best option following a quality rating.

Methods: A Bayesian network meta-analysis was used to assess the effect of the intervention on BP reduction, delaying hypertension progression and final outcome, with subgroup analyses for time and ethnicity. Recommendations for interventions were finally based on cumulative ranking probabilities and CINeMA.

Bibliometric analysis of functional dyspepsia research trends over the past 20 years.

Background: Functional dyspepsia is one of the most common functional gastrointestinal disorders that affects the physical health and quality of life of many people. Its status as a chronic disease has received continued attention in the field of gastrointestinal research.

Objective: Bibliometric methods using network analysis were used to identify developments and research trends in functional dyspepsia with a view to informing and orienting further in-depth research on functional dyspepsia.

Preparation and characterization of phthalated cellulose derivatives in room-temperature ionic liquid without catalysts.

Homogeneous modification of cellulose, isolated with 10% KOH from delignified sugarcane bagasse, was performed in room-temperature ionic liquid 1-allyl-3-methylinidazolium chloride with phthalic anhydride in the absence of catalyst. The results showed the degree of substitution of phthalated cellulosic derivatives, ranging from 0.10 to 0.
