Background: Pharmacovigilance risk signals have proposed a relationship between the use of acid-suppressive medications and the development of certain autoimmune and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases.
Objective: A systematic review and a meta-analysis was performed.
Methods: We reviewed MEDLINE (Ovid) and Scopus for comparative observational studies between these diseases and previous exposure to proton-pump inhibitors (PPI), H2-receptor antagonists (H2RA), and antacids. The protocol was registered on the PROSPERO database (CRD42020192715).
Results: From 3,191 citations, 25 articles were eligible and covered 16 diseases. Microscopic colitis (MC) was studied the most (7 studies). In a random-effects meta-analysis, there was low certainty evidence (GRADE approach) of a non-significant relationship between exposure to any PPIs and MC (meta-OR 3.28, 95% CI 0.98-11.0, I2 98.2%, six studies, 4,436 PPI-exposed MC patients). Moderate certainty evidence pointed towards large odds of collagenous colitis after exposure to lansoprazole (meta-OR 14.5, 95% CI 9.37-22.3, I2 10.2%, three studies, 1,725 lansoprazole-exposed patients). After PPI exposure, the risk of rheumatoid arthritis was slightly increased based on low certainty evidence from two cohort studies totaling 475 diagnoses (meta-RR 1.62, 95% CI 1.12-2.34, I2 34.5%).
Conclusions: In patients with MC, it would be reasonable to carefully review the indication of PPI, especially in CC patients using lansoprazole.

Objective: To assess the effectiveness of cognitive functional therapy (CFT) in reducing disability and pain compared to other interventions in chronic spinal pain patients.
Methods: Five databases were queried to October 2023 for retrieving randomized controlled trials (RCTs), including patients with chronic spinal pain and administering CFT. Primary outcomes were disability and pain.

Background: Inflammatory markers play a pivotal role in schizophrenia, as they provide insight into the neuroinflammatory processes occurring in the context of the disorder. Elevated levels of these markers, particularly C-reactive protein (CRP), can indicate an underlying immune system dysregulation, potentially influencing symptom severity and progression. Recognizing these markers has led to investigate the use of probiotics as an adjuvant to improve the treatment of schizophrenia.

Background: There is no strong evidence demonstrating whether or not aerobic exercise in conjunction with resistance exercise improves metabolic diabetes markers in postmenopausal women.
Objective: To evaluate the effect of aerobic exercise and resistance training on metabolic markers in postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) by means of a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Methods: The searches were completed using EMBASE, MEDLINE/PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science databases.

: Male infertility is influenced by physiological factors like age, as well as lifestyle factors, including physical activity. However, the specific impact of sport activity on semen parameters, and thus on male fertility, remains unclear. Specifically, the aim of this systematic review is to evaluate how an intense regime of training may affect sperm parameters in professional and non-profession athletes.

Background And Objectives: Nutrient supplements are commonly used to improve fertility outcomes by women with infertility trying to conceive spontaneously or utilising medically assisted reproduction (MAR). However, despite their widespread use and perceived safety, there is a lack of clear guidance on the efficacy and safety of these supplements for female infertility. The aim of this umbrella review was to identify the best available and most recent evidence on the efficacy and safety of nutrient supplements for female infertility to provide evidence-based guidance for clinicians and reproductive couples.
