Systematic review on clinical efficacy and safety of Cheezheng Pain Relieving Plaster for soft tissue injury / 中国中药杂志

To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Cheezheng Pain Relieving Plaster in the treatment of soft tissue injury. Four Chinese databases(namely CNKI, WanFang, VIP, CBM) and 2 English databases(namely PubMed, Cochrane Library) were retrieved from the establishment of each database to March 2019. The randomized controlled trials of Cheezheng Pain Relieving Plaster compared with routine therapy in treatment of soft tissue injury were included. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane Risk Assessment Tool. Five studies were included, and 367 patients were enrolled. None of the included studies reported randomized concealment, blinding, follow-up and dropping off. The results showed that Cheezheng Pain Relieving Plaster may have advantages in alleviating joint pain, swelling, tenderness and dysfunction and other symptoms, with no serious adverse reaction. Compared with routine therapy, Cheezheng Pain Relieving Plaster may have advantages in the treatment of soft tissue injury. However, due to the quality of the included RCTs, the conclusions of this study were limited. In addition, to produce high-quality evidences for the clinical application of Cheezheng Pain Relieving Plaster, the conclusions of this study shall be further verified with large-sample, scientifically designed and strictly implemented clinical trials.

Cinco años de seguimiento de tratamiento no invasivo para lesiones auto-infligidas en un niño con parálisis cerebral / Five year follow-up of non-invasive treatment for self-inflicted oral trauma in a child with cerebral palsy

ABSTRACT Introduction: Cerebral palsy involves loss or impairment of motor function attributed to non-progressive disturbances occurring in the developing fetal or infant brain. Self-inflicted oral trauma is a recurrent parafunctional habit in individuals with cerebral palsy. Objective: Describe two treatment modes for self-inflicted oral trauma in a 6-year-old male patient with cerebral palsy over a 5-year follow-up period. Case presentation: The child had been having pain due to injuries to the mouth floor and lingual frenum regions. Initially, low-level laser therapy was applied to accelerate the healing process of the wounds. Five years later, the child started to present worse oral injuries and placement of a fixed oral appliance was proposed. Intraoral examination showed that the wounds had healed completely in response to the oral appliance. Conclusions: Different therapies may be useful to control the recurrence of self-inflicted oral injuries(AU)

RESUMEN Introducción: La parálisis cerebral provoca una pérdida o deterioro de la función motora atribuida a trastornos no progresivos del desarrollo cerebral fetal o infantil. La lesión autoinfligida es un hábito parafuncional recurrente en personas con parálisis cerebral. Objetivo: Describir dos modalidades de tratamiento para las lesiones autoinfligidas en un niño de 6 años de edad con parálisis cerebral durante un periodo de seguimiento de 5 años. Presentación del caso: El niño presentaba dolor debido a lesiones en la región del suelo de la boca y el frenillo lingual. Inicialmente se aplicó terapia con láser de baja intensidad para acelerar el proceso de cicatrización de las heridas. Cinco años más tarde el niño empezó a presentar lesiones bucales más severas, por lo que se propuso la colocación de un dispositivo oral fijo. El examen intraoral mostró que las lesiones habían cicatrizado completamente en respuesta al dispositivo oral instalado. Conclusiones: Diferentes terapias pueden ser útiles para controlar la recurrencia de las lesiones orales autoinfligidas(AU)

Cyanoacrylate glue for type iii lad perforation.
