A total of 259 studies were identified, and 176 studies were excluded because of duplication. After reading the titles and abstracts, 44 studies were excluded. 39 possible full text studies were carefully reviewed (animal studies [n = 15]; review and meta-analysis [n = 11]; no control group [n = 2]). Finally, 11 trials were included for quantitative analysis.
