As a result, the methodological quality of the six trials that have been included into our analysis was low. The pooled ORs favoring the prevention and treatment effects of changing grains were 0.15 (95% CI: 0.03-0.70) and 2.13 (95% CI: 1.44-3.16) respectively by meta-analysis. Subgroup analysis demonstrated the pooled OR favoring treatment effect of exchanging grains rather than drying grains both compared with endemic grains. The results showed that changing grains had obvious effects on the prevention and treatment of KBD in children. However, the evidences were limited by the potential biases and confounders. Large and well-designed trials are still needed.展开更多

Dementia is predominantly a disease of aging with millions of people suffering from dementia and Alzheimer's disease (AD) and in recent years little has happened to change and improve the cognitive functions of elderly people (2015 Alzheimer's disease facts and figures). Every 4 seconds there is a new case of dementia in the world and with 7.7 mil- lion cases annually, the estimated global cost of AD and demen- tia disease is $604 billion.展开更多

In a certain sense, the development history of PCI is also the history of continually overcoming RS.展开更多
