Patients' expectation to treatment response is one source of placebo effects. A number of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) reported that expectation benefits to acupuncture treatment, while some did not. Previous systematic reviews failed to draw a confirmative conclusion due to the methodological heterogeneity. It is necessary to conduct a new systematic review to find out whether expectation can influence acupuncture outcomes. ⋯ INPLASY2020100020 on International Platform of Registered Systematic Review and Meta-analysis Protocols.

postmenopausal osteoporosis is a systemic metabolic skeletal disease associated with menopause-related estrogen withdrawal. postmenopausal osteoporosis is characterized by low bone mass, bone microstructure destruction, leading to increased bone brittleness and be prone to fracture, resulting in disability and death. At present, the commonly used drugs are estrogen, calcium, bone formation promoter and bone resorption inhibitor, and the side effects are obvious. In Traditional Chinese medicine, kidney-tonifying differentiating medicine is guided by the whole concept, Xianling Gubao capsule as the representative, the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis has certain therapeutic advantages, but lacks evidence-based medicine evidence.

Calcaneal fractures are rare in pediatric population, with more displaced intra-articular fractures encountered due to the increasing number of high-energy trauma. Operative interventions are gaining popularity because of the unsatisfactory outcomes of traditional conservative methods. This study investigated the clinical outcomes of a minimally invasive technique using the sinus tarsi approach and external fixator in the treatment of intra-articular calcaneal fractures in pediatric patients. ⋯ The average length of incision was 3.4 ± 0.7 cm. At the last follow-up, all patients showed satisfactory clinical outcomes and the score was 90.0 ± 2.3 according to American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society Scale. Minimally invasive approach with external fixator is an effective method for treating displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures in pediatric patients, with a lower incidence of wound-related complications and good cosmetic outcomes.
