Abstract
BACKGROUND Bacterial infections are common during induction therapy in children and adolescents with acute leukaemia and may cause infection-related mortality. AIM To determine the efficacy and safety of prophylactic antibiotics in paediatric patients with acute leukaemia receiving induction chemotherapy. METHODS From three English databases and four Chinese databases, we searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and cohort studies that compared prophylactic antibiotics to placebo, no prophylaxis, or that compared one antibiotic versus another in paediatric patients with acute leukaemia undergoing induction chemotherapy. Two reviewers independently screened the studies, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias using Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 tool and Newcastle-Ottawa Scale, and the certainty of evidence using Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE). FINDINGS Two RCTs and ten cohort studies were finally included. For children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, antibiotic prophylaxis, including levofloxacin, sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, or other antibiotics, probably reduced bacteraemia (risk ratio (RR): 0.44; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.33-0.60; moderate certainty) without significantly increasing Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) or invasive fungal infection. Levofloxacin reduced the CDI rate (RR: 0.08; 95% CI: 0.01-0.62; high certainty). Ciprofloxacin prophylaxis probably reduced infection-related mortality (RR: 0.12; 95% CI: 0.01-0.97; moderate certainty). In children with acute myeloid leukaemia, ciprofloxacin plus vancomycin may reduce febrile neutropenia (RR: 0.79; 95% CI: 0.66-0.94; low certainty). Individual studies indicated that prophylaxis increased antibiotic exposure but reduced non-preventive antibiotic exposure. CONCLUSION In children with acute leukaemia undergoing induction therapy, antibiotic prophylaxis may improve the bacterial infection and mortality.

Abstract
Background: Tuberculosis continues to be a significant global burden. Purified protein derivative of tuberculin (TB-PPD) is one type of tuberculin skin test (TST) and is used commonly for the auxiliary diagnosis of tuberculosis. The recombinant Mycobacterium tuberculosis fusion protein (EC) test is a new test developed in China. Objective: Evaluate the long-term economic implications of using the EC test compared with the TB-PPD test to provide a reference for clinical decision-making. Methods: The target population was people at a high risk persons of being infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The outcome indicator was quality-adjusted life years (QALY). A cost-utility analysis was used to evaluate the long-term economic implications of using the EC test compared with the TB-PPD test. We employed a decision tree-Markov model from the perspective of the whole society within 77 years. Results: Compared with the TB-PPD test, the EC test had a lower cost but higher QALY. The incremental cost-utility ratio was -119,800.7381 CNY/QALY. That is, for each additional QALY, the EC test could save 119,800.7381 CNY: the EC test was more economical than the TB-PPD test. Conclusion: Compared with the TB-PPD test, the EC test would be more economical in the long term for the diagnosis of M. tuberculosis infection according our study.

Abstract
Objectives Recombinant Mycobacterium tuberculosis fusion protein (EC) was anticipated to be used for the scale-up of clinical application for diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in China, but it lacked a head-to-head economic evaluation based on the Chinese population. This study aimed to estimate the cost-utility and the cost-effectiveness of both EC and tuberculin pure protein derivative (TB-PPD) for diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in the short term. Methods From a Chinese societal perspective, both cost-utility analysis and cost-effectiveness analysis were performed to evaluate the economics of EC and TB-PPD for a one-year period based on clinical trials and decision tree model, with quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) as the utility-measured primary outcome and diagnostic performance (including the misdiagnosis rate, the omission diagnostic rate, the number of patients correctly classified, and the number of tuberculosis cases avoided) as the effective-measured secondary outcome. One-way and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were performed to validate the robustness of the base-case analysis, and a scenario analysis was conducted to evaluate the difference in the charging method between EC and TB-PPD. Results The base-case analysis showed that, compared with TB-PPD, EC was the dominant strategy with an incremental cost-utility ratio (ICUR) of saving 192,043.60 CNY per QALY gained, and with an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of saving 7,263.53 CNY per misdiagnosis rate reduction. In addition, there was no statistical difference in terms of the omission diagnostic rate, the number of patients correctly classified, and the number of tuberculosis cases avoided, and EC was a similar cost-saving strategy with a lower test cost (98.00 CNY) than that of TB-PPD (136.78 CNY). The sensitivity analysis showed the robustness of cost-utility and cost-effectiveness analysis, and the scenario analysis indicated cost-utility in EC and cost-effectiveness in TB-PPD. Conclusion This economic evaluation from a societal perspective showed that, compared to TB-PPD, EC was likely to be a cost-utility and cost-effective intervention in the short term in China.

Abstract
Introduction: Drug-related problems (DRPs) refer to events or circumstances involving drug therapy that actually or potentially interfere with desired health outcomes. DRPs might be severe for children with chronic diseases managed at primary health care institutions, but the relevant research is scarce.Objective: In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to explore the prevalence, types, causes, and influencing factors of DRPs in children with chronic diseases in a Chinese primary health care institution.Methods: We recruited children with chronic diseases who visited the pediatric outpatient department in a primary health care institution from July 1 to 12 October 2021. Clinical pharmacists identified DRPs through medication therapy reviews, classified the types and causes of DRPs, and distinguished the manifested DRPs that affected the outcome and potential DRPs that were going to affect the outcome.Results: A total of 188 children with chronic diseases was included, and 584 DRPs were identified in 89.89% of participants. The most common type of DRPs was “treatment effectiveness” (a manifested problem or potential problem with the effect of the pharmacotherapy; 83.56%), of which 67.29% were potential DRPs. The second common type was “treatment safety” (patient suffers or could suffer from an adverse drug event; 14.21%), of which 89.16% were potential DRPs. The most common cause of DRPs was related to the process of use (42.24%), such as “patient uses/takes less drug than prescribed or does not take the drug at all,” “patient stores drug inappropriately,” and “patient administers/uses the drug in a wrong way.” The second common cause was related to the process of dispensing (29.83%), such as “necessary information not provided or incorrect advice provided” and “prescribed drug is not available.” The third common cause was related to the process of prescribing (26.21%), such as “drug dose is too low” and “no or incomplete drug treatment despite an existing indication.” The number of combined medications was an influencing factor for the frequency of DRPs (p < 0.05).Conclusion: This cross-sectional study showed that the current situation regarding DRPs among children with chronic diseases managed in the primary health care institution was serious. The types of DRPs were mainly related to treatment effectiveness, and improper usage of medications was one of the main causes of DRPs. The number of combined drugs was the influencing factor for the frequency of DRPs. In the future, pharmacists should consider formulating pharmaceutical intervention strategies for this specific group according to the characteristics of DRPs.

Abstract
Background: Drug use safety in children is a global public health problem. The potentially inappropriate prescription screening tools are expected to reduce adverse drug reactions and promote rational drug use. Objectives: To systematically evaluate children’s potentially inappropriate prescription screening tools and validation studies on these tools. Methods: We systematically searched six databases PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang Data. Two reviewers independently selected articles by the eligible criteria and extracted data. Then we evaluated the coverage of diseases or drugs in these tools and the consistency of items between tools. Results: Five children’s potentially inappropriate prescription screening tools were identified, most tools were formed by Delphi expert consensus and focused on respiratory system drugs, anti-infective drugs, and gastrointestinal drugs. The coincidence rates of items between the POPI and the POPI Int, the POPI and the POPI United Kingdom, the POPI United Kingdom and the POPI int, and the POPI United Kingdom and the PIPc were 82.0, 55.1, 51.0 and 2.2% respectively, and the KIDs List did not overlap other four tools. Only the POPI tool developed by French experts was comprehensively validated by studies and most tools have not been validated. Conclusion: The development of screening tools for potentially inappropriate prescribing in children is a neglected field and most tools lack studies to validate clinical applicability. More researchers need to form their national potentially inappropriate prescription screening tools for children based on the best available clinical evidence and the actual clinical situation in their countries.

Abstract
Background Research on pharmacoeconomics (PE) promotes the rational allocation of medical resources, which has received attention in the last decade. We conducted a scientometric analysis of PE to determine the current status and frontiers, and promote cooperation and development. Methods The Web of Science Core Collection-Science Citation Index Expanded was adopted to retrieve publications associated with PE from 2012–2021. After screening publications, CiteSpace 3.8.R3 was used to conduct a scientometric analysis. We analyzed terms, including publications and citations, countries/regions, institutions, journals, authors, keywords, and references. Results In total, 4,715 documents published from 2012–2021 were included in this study, of which 3,829 were articles and 886 were reviews. The documents were cited 54,596 times, at an average of 11.58 times per document. 121 countries/regions and 410 institutions were involved. The top 3 countries/regions by the number of publications were the United States of America (n=1,790), England (n=601), and China (n=403), while the institution with the most publications was Pfizer. Pharmacoeconomics was the main journal of PE, with 310 publications in all, and the top 3 cited journals were New England Journal of Medicine (citation times =1,620), Value in Health (citation times =1,306), and Lancet (citation times =1,255). Bin Wu was the most productive author (n=16), while World Health Organization was the most influential author (citation times =387). 524 keywords altogether were found, and the top 3 keywords by frequency were therapy (frequency =318), impact (frequency =305), and cost-effectiveness (frequency =296). The keyword “modifying antirheumatic drug” associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has continued bursting from 2016–2021. Guide to the methods of technology appraisal 2013 by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, was the most frequently cited publication on PE (citation times =65). Cluster 0 labeled as “cost-effectiveness analysis” (CEA) was the largest and latest cluster, and its citing articles focused on the CEA of first-line treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Conclusions The economic analysis of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs related to RA was a popular topic in the last 6 years, and CEA of NSCLC first-line treatment was at the frontier of PE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Azithromycin (AZI) is increasingly used for childhood asthma despite limited and inconsistent data. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AZI in childhood asthma. METHODS We searched seven databases to include randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of AZI in the treatment of childhood asthma. Four reviewers independently screened the records. Risk of Bias 2 was used to assess the quality of RCTs. Risk ratios with 95% confidence interval (CI) from dichotomous outcomes, and mean difference (MD) with 95% CI from continuous outcomes were pooled. RESULTS We included 19 eligible reports from 17 studies. The prevalence of exacerbations in AZI + budesonide (BUD) + β2 agonist (BA) group was lower than BUD + BA group (four [13%] vs. 19 [63%], p < 0.05) in 6- 14 years old children with chronic persistent asthma. AZI plus antiasthma drugs (AADs) could improve the posttreatment childhood asthma control test score (MD = 2.97; 95% CI, 2.39-3.54) compared to AADs alone in children with chronic persistent asthma. AZI plus AADs could improve posttreatment forced expiratory volume in 1 s of predicted value/forced vital capacity % (MD = 10.24%; 95% CI, 6.44%-14.03%) and posttreatment peak expiratory flow % of predicted value (MD = 7.00%; 95% CI, 2.53%-11.47%) compared to AADs alone in children with chronic persistent asthma. The most common adverse reactions of AZI combined with other drugs were gastrointestinal reactions. CONCLUSIONS AZI may be beneficial in improving some clinical symptoms and lung functions in older asthma children (over 6 years old) with persistent asthma. But it still requires further research.

Abstract
There is strong evidence to suggest that obesity-related proteins play a key role in pathways that are related to breast cancer. In this study, we aimed to establish a robust obesity-related protein score (ORPS) that could be used to assess breast cancer risk. Based on evidence from high-quality systematic reviews and population studies, we selected nine such proteins that are stable in vitro, and measured their circulating concentrations by ELISA in a case-control study conducted in Chengdu, Sichuan, China, with 279 breast cancer cases and 260 healthy controls. Two obesity-related protein scores (ORPS) were calculated using a three-step method, with linear-weighted summation, and the one with a larger area under the curve was chosen for further evaluation. As a result, ORPS (PS5pre or PS4post) was positively correlated with breast cancer risk (premenopausal: OR≤63 VS >63 3.696, 95% CI 2.025-6.747; postmenopausal: OR≤38 VS >38 7.100, 95% CI 3.134-16.084), and represented a better risk predictor among obese women compared to non-obese in pre- and postmenopausal women. Among different molecular subtypes, ORPS was positively correlated with Luminal breast cancer, with additionally positive association with triple-negative breast cancer in premenopausal women. The ORPS might be a potential marker of breast cancer risk among Chinese women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE As a very common risk of adverse outcomes of the ischemic stroke patients, sarcopenia is associated with infectious complications and higher mortality. The goal of this retrospective study is to explore the predictive value of serum Cr/CysC ratio in acute ischemic stroke patients receiving nutritional intervention. METHODS We reviewed adult patients with AIS from December 2019 to February 2020. Patients with acute kidney injury were excluded and all patients received nutritional intervention during a 3-month follow-up period. We collected baseline data at admission including creatinine and cystatin C. The primary poor outcome was major disability (modified Rankin Scale score ≥ 4) at 3 months after AIS. RESULTS A total of 217 patients with AIS were identified for this study. Serum Cr/CysC ratio was significantly correlated with NIHSS at discharge, 1-month modified Rankin Scale score, and 3-month modified Rankin Scale score. During 3 months, 34 (15.70%) patients had a poor outcome after AIS and 11 (5.10%) patients died within 30 days. In multivariable logistic regression analyses, serum Cr/CysC ratio at admission was independently associated with 3-month poor outcomes (OR: 0.953, 95% CI: 0.921-0.986, p = .006) and 30-day mortality (OR: 0.953, 95% CI: 0.921-0.986, p = .006). CONCLUSION As a blood biochemical indexes reflecting the muscle mass and aiding in risk stratification, Cr/CysC ratio at admission could be used as a predictor of 30-day mortality and long-term poor prognosis in AIS patients.

Abstract
The treatment of fungal mycetoma is essentially surgical. This carcinological-like surgery consists of amputation in case of bone involvement. The recurrences after amputation are rare and address the problem of the operative indication. We report 5 cases of recurrence of fungal black-grain mycetoma after amputation of leg or thigh. Case 1: a 52-year-old patient with a mycetoma of the knee evolving for 8 years. There is no history of surgery. A thigh amputation with ganglion dissection is performed. One year after the surgical procedure, the patient presents a recurrence on the amputation stump and on the lymph node dissection site. An indication of hip disarticulation is made and performed 17 months after amputation. Case 2: a 25-year-old patient who has a black-grain mycetoma of the foot with osteitis evolving since 10 years. A leg amputation was performed. The patient had a recurrence at the popliteal level at 15 months postoperatively. An indication of amputation of the thigh is posed and refused by the patient. Case 3: a30-year-old woman with black-grain mycetoma of the knee with bone involvement for more than 10 years. A thigh amputation was performed and at nine months postoperativeshe presented a recurrence in the amputation stump. She was lost of sight despite the decision of surgical revision. Case 4: a 43-year-old patient operated on his foot and leg mycetoma at least 5 timesbefore amputation in 2000. The recurrence occurred one year after amputation. 18 years after amputation, a new surgical procedure was difficult due to extension of the lesions in the pelvis. Case 5: a 50-year-old female patient operated in Mauritania in 2012 (thigh amputation for mycetoma of the knee). She presented a recurrence on the amputation stump in 2018. An indication of disarticulation of the hip was posed and refused by the patient. These recurrences were testified by to the persistence of grains on the preserved segment. They pose the problem of the level of amputation and therefore of preoperative planning. Good preoperative planning allows optimization of the surgical procedure and avoids certain recurrences.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Risk-based breast cancer screening is a cost-effective intervention for controlling breast cancer in China, but the successful implementation of such intervention requires an accurate breast cancer prediction model for Chinese women. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate and compare the performance of four machine learning algorithms on predicting breast cancer among Chinese women using 10 breast cancer risk factors. METHODS A dataset consisting of 7127 breast cancer cases and 7127 matched healthy controls was used for model training and testing. We used repeated 5-fold cross-validation and calculated AUC, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy as the measures of the model performance. RESULTS The three novel machine-learning algorithms (XGBoost, Random Forest and Deep Neural Network) all achieved significantly higher area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs), sensitivity, and accuracy than logistic regression. Among the three novel machine learning algorithms, XGBoost (AUC 0.742) outperformed deep neural network (AUC 0.728) and random forest (AUC 0.728). Main residence, number of live births, menopause status, age, and age at first birth were considered as top-ranked variables in the three novel machine learning algorithms. CONCLUSIONS The novel machine learning algorithms, especially XGBoost, can be used to develop breast cancer prediction models to help identify women at high risk for breast cancer in developing countries.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the menopausal symptoms and quality of life of hormone receptor positive (HR+ ) breast cancer patients at different endocrine therapy time. Methods: The HR+ breast cancer patients who were pathologically confirmed from 2011 to 2017 in the Sichuan Cancer Hospital were divided into three groups according to endocrine therapy time (<12 months, 12~36 months, >36 months) and analyzed by a cross-sectional study. The Menopausal symptoms and quality of life of these patients were measured using the modified Kupperman scale and the functional assessment of cancer therapy-breast cancer (FACT-B) scale. The differences of menopausal symptoms among different time groups and drug groups were analyzed by Chi-square test. The differences of quality of life and the effects of menopausal symptoms on quality of life were tested by covariance and multiple linear regression analyses. Results: The average score of menopausal symptom of 167 patients was 14.5±7.6 and the prevalence rate was 87.4% (146/167). Among all of the menopausal symptoms, the prevalence rate of insomnia was the highest (73.7%, 123/167). Besides insomnia and excitement, hot flashes was more prevalent in selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) users (64.8%, 79/122) , while osteoarthritis was more prevalent in aromatase inhibitor (AI) users (62.2%, 28/45). The total score of FACT-B of Patients was 104.5±15.5, and the compliance rate was up to 89.8% (150/167). However, the condition of each dimension was different, the compliance rates of social/ family and functional dimension were lowest, which were 73.0% (122/167) and 50.9% (85/167), respectively. The menopausal symptoms of patients at different time groups were 15.0±1.3, 14.0±6.9, 14.5±7.4, respectively, and the total score of FACT-B of patients at different time groups were 102.7±17.8, 105.0±12.9, 105.6±16.7, respectively, without significant differences (both P>0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that menopausal symptoms impaired the quality of life of SERM users during the endocrine therapeutic period. The standardized regression coefficients of three time groups were -0.67, -0.30, -0.50, respectively, with the lowest effect on 12~36 months group. Conclusion: HR+ breast cancer patients will have a poor function recovery and social/ family return, who need more attention. Menopausal symptoms are common problems during endocrine therapy, and active measures should be taken to improve patients' quality of life.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the relationships between plasma adiponectin levels and risk of breast cancer by molecular subtype. METHODS A case-control study including 437 histopathologic confirmed primary breast cancer cases and 469 healthy female controls was conducted between April 2014 and May 2015. Basic information of the participants were collected using a structured questionnaire. Blood samples were collected and the plasma adiponectin levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELASA). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to compare the differences of plasma adiponectin levels among the control group and the breast cancer groups with different molecular subtypes. Multinomial logistic regression was used to investigate the association between plasma adiponectin levels and risk of breast cancer by molecular subtypes. All the statistical analyses were stratified by menopausal status. RESULTS Among the 437 breast cancer cases, there were 310 Luminal breast cancer cases, 83 HER-2-enriched breast cancer cases and 44 basal-like breast cancer cases. The median (P25, P75) of plasma adiponectin level of the controls was 14.85 (9.69, 21.35) μg/mL. The medians (P25, P75) of plasma adiponectin levels of the cases were 11.74 (8.15, 16.14) μg/mL, 12.02(8.43, 16.96) μg/mL and 12.67(8.25, 17.27) μg/mL for Luminal, HER-2-enriched and basal-like subtype respectively, which were statistically different from the controls (P < 0.001). Multinomial logistic regression showed that, after adjustment for the confounders, the higher levels of plasma adiponectin were associated with the lower risks of pre-menopausal Luminal breast cancer (ORpre-menopausal Luminal=0.50, 95%CI: 0.27-0.92, Ptrend=0.001), post-menopausal Luminal breast cancer (ORpost-menopausal Luminal=0.06, 95%CI: 0.02-0.23, Ptrend < 0.001) and post-menopausal HER-2-enriched breast cancer (ORpost-menopausal HER-2-enriched=0.06, 95%CI: 0.01-0.62, Ptrend=0.001). CONCLUSION Lower levels of plasma adiponectin may increase the risk of pre-menopausal and post-menopausal Luminal breast cancer and post-menopausal HER-2-enriched breast cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the association between plasma leptin (LEP) levels, soluble leptin receptor(SLR), free leptin index and breast cancer. Methods: 245 new female cases of primary breast cancer confirmed by histopathology examination were sequentially recruited into the study. A total of 245 age-matched healthy women were enrolled as controls during the same period. A standardized questionnaire was used to collect the demographic information of the subjects. Blood samples were collected and the levels of LEP and SLR in plasma were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The differences of LEP, SLR and FLI expression between control and cases group, as well as different breast cancer subtypes and TNM stages were compared using t-test and ANOVA after stratification by menopause status. Multivariate logistic regression was used to explore the contributions of the three indexes to the risk of breast cancer. Results: Females in both cases and control group were (50.7 ± 9.4) years old. The level of SLR and FLI (P(50)(P(25),P(75))) in premenopausal women were 18.4 (11.2, 28.7), 0.5 (0.4, 0.6) μg/L in case group and 27.7 (19.2, 43.4), 0.3 (0.3, 0.4) μg/L in control group (P<0.001). While the level of postmenopausal women in case group were 20.3 (12.8, 31.8), 0.5 (0.4, 0.6) μ g/L (P<0.001), and 30.1 (18.8, 40.5), 0.3 (0.3, 0.5) μg/L in control group (P<0.001), respectively. After adjustment for confounding factors and BMI, the relationship between FLI and breast cancer remained significant for both pre- and postmenopausal women while the association between SLR and breast cancer was significant only in premenopausal women. Compared with the lowest level of SLR, higer levels of SLR is associated with a reduced risk of breast cancer (premenopausal women, OR=0.10, 95% CI: 0.04-0.29, P(trend)<0.001). Compared with the lowest level of FLI, FLI at higher levels is associated with an increased risk of breast cancer (premenopausal women, OR=7.14, 95% CI: 2.86-17.83, P(trend)<0.001; postmenopausal women, OR=8.10, 95% CI: 2.85-22.98, P(trend)<0.001). No significant association between LEP and breast cancer or association between the three indexes and breast cancer subtypes and TNM stages was found (P>0.05). Conclusion: SLR may be a protective factor for breast cancer while FLI may increase the risk of breast cancer.

Abstract
Objective: To estimate incident probability and establish risk rating model of breast cancer incidence under different combinations of non-genetic factors among Southwest China females, applying the decision trees. Methods: From 2014 to 2015, a total of 783 cases, which were pathologically diagnosed as primary breast cancer, were sequentially collected from West China Hospital of Sichuan University, Sichuan Cancer Hospital and Sichuan Province People's Hospital. 3, 879(excluding 36 samples with missing data) controls were randomly selected and matched by area of residence and age. Classification and regression tree (CART) algorithm was applied to construct breast cancer risk rating model according to non-genetic factors. 5 test sets were randomly selected for model validation. Results: BI-RADS classes, menopausal status, age, history of benign breast disease, menarche age, age of first delivery and number of live births were identified as risk factors and included in the risk rating model of breast cancer incidence. Among these factors, BI-RADS classes, menopausal status and age were the most important. The risk rating model developed were vitrificated by 5 test sets, and the average sensitivity, positive predictive value, accuracy were 95.60%, 92.26%, 97.93%, respectively. Conclusions: Breast cancer risk rating model constructed by decision trees was valid and reliable. The model could be used as the basic tool of breast cancer risk assessment among Southwest China females.

Abstract
We conducted a systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials that evaluated the effect of diabetes mobile phone applications. A total of 1550 participants from 21 studies were included. For type 1 diabetes, a significant 0.49% reduction in HbA1c was seen (95% CI, 0.04-0.94; I2 = 84%), with unexplained heterogeneity and a low GRADE of evidence. For type 2 diabetes, using diabetes apps was associated with a mean reduction of 0.57% (95% CI, 0.32-0.82; I2 = 77%). The results had severe heterogeneity that was explained by the frequency of HCP feedback. In studies with no HCP feedback, low frequency and high frequency HCP feedback, the mean reduction is 0.24% (95% CI, 0.02-0.49; I2 = 0%), 0.33% (95% CI, 0.07-0.59; I2 = 47%) and 1.12% (95% CI, 0.91-1.32; I2 = 0%), respectively, with a high GRADE of evidence. There is evidence that diabetes apps improve glycaemic control in type 1 diabetes patients. A reduction of 0.57% in HbA1c was found in type 2 diabetes patients. However, HCP functionality is important to achieve clinical effectiveness. Future studies are needed to explore the cost-effectiveness of diabetes apps and the optimal intensity of HCP feedback.
