Abstract
BACKGROUND Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an inflammatory disease of the inverse skin regions with an age peak at around 40 years and an estimated prevalence of 1%. Nodules and abscesses can develop into fistules and scarring, which cause severe pain. HS is a progressive, life-defining disease that leads to physical limitations, inability to work, and social isolation. There is still little data on the drivers of disease severity and burden. METHOD The cross-sectional study is based on the baseline data of 553 participants of the health care research project "EsmAiL," which was carried out as a multicenter randomized controlled trial. It included adult HS-patients presenting with at least three inflammatory lesions and at least a moderate impact on quality of life. RESULTS Disease activity increases with age. Men are more severely affected than women but feel less burdened. Obesity negatively influences disease activity and disease burden. Affected individuals have a higher level of education than the age adjusted population, but the unemployment rate is significantly higher. Disease activity significantly reduces quality of life and promotes depression and anxiety. CONCLUSIONS HS is a severe and debilitating dermatosis. As a result of the well-established factors involved, HS requires a multi-causal approach to management, in addition to medical and surgical treatment. This must take into account all available therapeutic options, as well as patient education to reduce risk factors and pain, and psychological support. HS requires interdisciplinary and multi-professional care. To prevent disease progression, a structured treatment plan is needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease affecting approximately 1% of the population. The patient journey through the German health care system leads to high disease burden and substantial treatment costs. The EsmAiL study showed that an innovative, interprofessional, multimodal care-concept reduces disease activity and burden of HS compared to standard care. This paper examines the costs of treating HS in Germany and compares them with those of the innovative care concept implemented in EsmAiL. METHODS EsmAiL was a two-arm, multicenter, prospective randomized controlled trial including 553 adults with HS. The study was registered in the German Clinical Trials Registry (DRKS00022135). The control group (CG) remained in standard care, whereas the intervention group (IG) was referred to specialized so-called 'acne-inversa-centres (AiZ)' where patients were treated with a structured, interdisciplinary approach. The present paper analyses the treatment costs for a subpopulation based on health insurance cost data from the two largest German health insurers. Quality-Adjusted Life Years (QALY) was assessed based on Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI). RESULTS Total annual treatment costs per patient were €3,966.07 in standard care (n = 89) and €3,974.37 in the innovative care (n = 93). The costs per additional QALY amounted to €12,698.72 in the IG. Given the conventional and established threshold of €22,600 to €33,900 per QALY, the innovative treatment in AiZ proved to be cost-effective. CONCLUSION Treatment costs of HS are substantial and increase with disease severity. The new form of care is cost-effective and is expected to decrease costs in the long run.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Evaluate relatives' experience of delirium due to an acute health event in a loved person and to compile practical suggestions for health care professionals from these synthesized results. BACKGROUND Delirium resulting from an acute health event places patients at increased risk for prolonged hospitalization and mortality. A delirium episode also affects family members who may assist in the diagnosis and recovery from this condition. INCLUSION CRITERIA Qualitative studies of family members or other caregivers who witnessed patient delirium in a clinical setting were included if they had appropriate verbatim evidence. Studies dealing exclusively with delirium in the context of dementia, cancer, palliative care, or drug dependence were excluded, and if quotes could not be clearly allocated to relatives. METHODS A systematic review of qualitative studies adapted from the Joanna Briggs Institute meta-aggregation approach. A systematic literature search was conducted in CINAHL complete®, MEDLINE®, and several dissertation databases in September 2022. RESULTS Eight qualitative studies based on semi-structured interviews were included. In total 75 findings from 105 relatives were aggregated into 13 categories. Finally, three synthesized findings reveal suggestions for health care professionals: providing information adequately, communication and integration during health care and understanding relatives' perspective on delirium experience. CONCLUSION The identified burdens and needs of relatives should be considered by health care professionals to enhance the delirium experience for them, thus improving patient care by involving relatives with a better understanding.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study was to summarize and evaluate the empirical evidence on the measurement properties of diaper dermatitis (DD) measurement instruments in children. DESIGN Systematic review. METHODS MEDLINE, CINAHL and EMBASE were systematically searched until 14 June 2021. Citation searching was conducted in Scopus. The risk of bias, the reported measurement properties and the quality of evidence were evaluated using the COSMIN framework. The reporting follows the PRISMA 2020 statement. RESULTS We identified 1200 records in the databases and 108 records during citation searching and included four studies describing three measurement instruments for DD in children and their measurement properties. We considered the content validity inconsistent for all three instruments. The study authors reported internal consistency, reliability and construct validity for one instrument. We rated the quality of evidence from very low to moderate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an inflammatory disease of the inverse skin regions that occurs in young women, in particular, and affects approximately 1% of the population. Outpatient care is often inadequate and usually cannot prevent progression. OBJECTIVES To evaluate in the EsmAiL ('Evaluation eines strukturierten und leitlinienbasierten multmodalen Versorgungskonzepts für Menschen mit Akne inversa') trial whether an innovative care concept can decrease disease activity and burden, and improve patient satisfaction. METHODS EsmAiL was conducted as a two-arm, multicentre, prospective, randomized controlled trial that included 553 adults with HS. Inclusion criteria were a minimum of three inflammatory lesions and at least a moderate impact of the disease on quality of life. The control group (CG) remained under standard care, while patients in the intervention group (IG) were treated according to a trial-specific, multimodal concept. The primary endpoint was the absolute change in International Hidradenitis Suppurativa Severity Score System (IHS4). RESULTS In total, 274 patients were randomized to the IG and 279 to the CG. Altogether, 377 attended the final assessment after 12 months of intervention. Participants in the IG (n = 203) achieved a mean improvement in IHS4 of 9.3 points, while the average decrease in IHS4 in patients in the CG (n = 174) was 5.7 points (P = 0.003). Patients treated under the new care concept also reported a statistically significantly higher decrease in pain, Dermatology Life Quality Index and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale scores compared with those in the CG (P < 0.001). Patient satisfaction was also statistically significantly higher in the IG compared with the CG (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The establishment of standardized treatment algorithms in so-called 'acne inversa centres' in the ambulatory setting has a substantial, positive impact on the course of HS and significantly improves patient satisfaction.

Abstract
ZusammenfassungIn den vergangenen Jahren hat der Einsatz mechanischer Unterstützungssysteme für Patienten mit Herz- und Kreislaufversagen kontinuierlich zugenommen, sodass in Deutschland mittlerweile
jährlich etwa 3000 ECLS-/ECMO-Systeme implantiert werden. Vor dem Hintergrund bislang fehlender umfassender Leitlinien bestand ein dringlicher Bedarf an der Formulierung evidenzbasierter
Empfehlungen zu den zentralen Aspekten der ECLS-/ECMO-Therapie. Im Juli 2015 wurde daher die Erstellung einer S3-Leitlinie durch die Deutsche Gesellschaft für Thorax-, Herz- und
Gefäßchirurgie (DGTHG) bei der zuständigen Arbeitsgemeinschaft der Wissenschaftlichen Medizinischen Fachgesellschaften e. V. (AWMF) angemeldet. In einem strukturierten Konsensusprozess mit
Einbindung von Experten aus Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz, delegiert aus 11 AWMF-Fachgesellschaften, 5 weiteren Fachgesellschaften sowie der Patientenvertretung, entstand unter
Federführung der DGTHG die Leitlinie „Einsatz der extrakorporalen Zirkulation (ECLS/ECMO) bei Herz- und Kreislaufversagen“, die im Februar 2021 publiziert wurde. Die Leitlinie fokussiert auf
klinische Aspekte der Initiierung, Fortführung, Entwöhnung und Nachsorge und adressiert hierbei auch strukturelle und ökonomische Fragestellungen. Dieser Artikel präsentiert eine Übersicht
zu der Methodik und den konsentierten Empfehlungen.

Abstract
ZusammenfassungIn den vergangenen Jahren hat der Einsatz mechanischer Unterstützungssysteme für Patienten mit Herz- und Kreislaufversagen kontinuierlich zugenommen, sodass in Deutschland
mittlerweile jährlich etwa 3000 ECLS/ECMO-Systeme implantiert werden. Vor dem Hintergrund bislang fehlender umfassender Leitlinien bestand ein dringlicher Bedarf an der
Formulierung evidenzbasierter Empfehlungen zu den zentralen Aspekten der ECLS/ECMO-Therapie.Im Juli 2015 wurde daher die Erstellung einer S3-Leitlinie durch die Deutsche Gesellschaft für Thorax-, Herz- und Gefäßchirurgie (DGTHG) bei der zuständigen Arbeitsgemeinschaft der
Wissenschaftlichen Medizinischen Fachgesellschaften e. V. (AWMF) angemeldet. In einem strukturierten Konsensusprozess mit Einbindung von Experten aus Deutschland, Österreich und
der Schweiz, delegiert aus 11 AWMF-Fachgesellschaften, 5 weiteren Fachgesellschaften sowie der Patientenvertretung, entstand unter Federführung der DGTHG die Leitlinie „Einsatz der
extrakorporalen Zirkulation (ECLS/ECMO) bei Herz- und Kreislaufversagen“, die im Februar 2021 publiziert wurde.Die Leitlinie fokussiert auf klinische Aspekte der Initiierung, Fortführung, Entwöhnung und Nachsorge und adressiert hierbei auch strukturelle und ökonomische Fragestellungen.
Dieser Artikel präsentiert eine Übersicht zu der Methodik und den konsentierten Empfehlungen.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a very prevalent and debilitating chronic pain disorder that is difficult to treat. Mindfulness-based techniques are regarded as a very promising approach for the treatment of chronic pain and in particular FM. The Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement (MORE) intervention, a mindfulness-based group intervention, has shown beneficial effects in opioid-treated chronic pain patients, including reduced pain severity, functional interference, and opioid dosing, by restoring neurophysiological and behavioral responses to reward. The first evidence for a hypodopaminergic state and impaired reward processing in FM has been reported. However, little is known about its impact on dopamine (DA) function and in particular with regard to DA responses to monetary reward in FM. The aim of the present study protocol is to evaluate if MORE is able to restore the DA function in FM patients, in particular with regard to the DA responses to reward, and to reduce pain and mood complaints in FM.
Methods
The present study is a multi-center interventional RCT with 3 time points: before the intervention, after completion of the intervention, and 3 months after completion of the intervention. Sixty-four FM patients will be randomly assigned to either the MORE intervention (N = 32) or a non-intervention control group (N = 32). Additionally, a comparison group of healthy women (N = 20) for PET measures will be enrolled and another group of healthy women (N = 15) will do the ambulatory assessments only. The MORE intervention consists of eight 2-h-long group sessions administered weekly over a period of 8 weeks. Before and after the intervention, FM participants will undergo [18F] DOPA positron emission tomography (PET) and functional MR imaging while performing a reward task. The primary outcome will be endogeneous DA changes measured with [18F] DOPA PET at baseline, after the intervention (after 8 weeks for the non-intervention control group), and at 3 months’ follow-up. Secondary outcomes will be (1) clinical pain measures and FM symptoms using standardized clinical scales; (2) functional brain changes; (3) measures of negative and positive affect, stress, and reward experience in daily life using the ambulatory assessment method (AA); and (4) biological measures of stress including cortisol and alpha-amylase.
Discussion
If the findings of this study confirm the effectiveness of MORE in restoring DA function, reducing pain, and improving mood symptoms, MORE can be judged to be a promising means to improve the quality of life in FM patients. The findings of this trial may inform health care providers about the potential use of the MORE intervention as a possible non-pharmacological intervention for FM.

Abstract
Aims Worldwide applications of extracorporeal circulation for mechanical support in cardiac and circulatory failure, which are referred to as extracorporeal life support (ECLS) or veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (va‐ECMO), have dramatically increased over the past decade. In spite of the expanding use and the immense medical as well as socio‐economic impact of this therapeutic approach, there has been a lack of interdisciplinary recommendations considering the best available evidence for ECLS treatment. Methods and Results In a multiprofessional, interdisciplinary scientific effort of all scientific societies involved in the treatment of patients with acute cardiac and circulatory failure, the first evidence‐ and expert consensus‐based guideline (level S3) on ECLS/ECMO therapy was developed in a structured approach under regulations of the AWMF (Association of the Scientific Medical Societies in Germany) and under use of GRADE (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation) criteria. This article presents all recommendations created by the expert panel, addressing a multitude of aspects for ECLS initiation, continuation, weaning and aftercare as well as structural and personnel requirements. Conclusions This first evidence‐ and expert consensus‐based guideline (level S3) on ECLS/ECMO therapy should be used to apply the best available care nationwide. Beyond clinical practice advice, remaining important research aspects for future scientific efforts are formulated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Souvenaid is a dietary supplement with a patented composition (Fortasyn Connect™)which is intended to be used by people with Alzheimer's disease (AD). It has been designed to support the formation and function of synapses in the brain, which are thought to be strongly correlated with cognitive function. If effective, it might improve symptoms of Alzheimer's disease and also prevent the progression from prodromal Alzheimer's disease to dementia. We sought in this review to examine the evidence for this proposition. OBJECTIVES To assess the effects of Souvenaid on incidence of dementia, cognition, functional performance, and safety in people with Alzheimer's disease. SEARCH METHODS We searched ALOIS, i.e. the specialised register of the Cochrane Dementia and Cognitive Improvement Group, MEDLINE (Ovid SP), Embase (Ovid SP), PsycINFO (Ovid SP), Web of Science (ISI Web of Science), Cinahl (EBSCOhost), Lilacs (BIREME), and clinical trials registries up to 24 June 2020. We also reviewed citations of reference lists of landmark papers, reviews, and included studies for additional studies and assessed their suitability for inclusion in the review. SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomised, placebo-controlled trials which evaluated Souvenaid in people diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to AD (also termed prodromal AD) or with dementia due to AD, and with a treatment duration of at least 16 weeks. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Our primary outcome measures were incidence of dementia, global and specific cognitive function, functional performance, combined cognitive-functional outcomes and adverse events. We selected studies, extracted data, assessed the quality of trials and intended to conduct meta-analyses according to the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. We rated the quality of the evidence using the GRADE approach. We present all outcomes grouped by stage of AD. MAIN RESULTS We included three randomised, placebo-controlled trials investigating Souvenaid in 1097 community-dwelling participants with Alzheimer's disease. One study each included participants with prodromal AD, mild AD dementia and mild-to-moderate AD dementia. We rated the risks of bias of all trials as low. One study (in prodromal AD) was funded by European grants. The other two studies were funded by the manufacturer of Souvenaid. One trial investigated the incidence of dementia in people with prodromal AD at baseline, and found little to no difference between the Souvenaid group and the placebo group after 24 months (RR 1.09, 95% CI 0.82 to 1.43; 1 trial, 311 participants; moderate quality of evidence). In prodromal AD, and in mild and mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease dementia, Souvenaid probably results in little or no difference in global or specific cognitive functions (moderate quality of evidence). Everyday function, or the ability to perform activities of daily living, were measured in mild and mild-to-moderate AD dementia. Neither study found evidence of a difference between the groups after 24 weeks of treatment (moderate quality of evidence). Two studies investigated combined cognitive-functional outcomes with the Clinical Dementia Rating Sum of Boxes and observed conflicting results. Souvenaid probably results in slight improvement, which is below estimates of meaningful change, in participants with prodromal Alzheimer's disease after 24 months (moderate quality of evidence), but probably has little to no effect in mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease dementia after 24 weeks (moderate quality of evidence). Adverse effects observed were low in all trials, and the available data were insufficient to determine any connection with Souvenaid. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS Two years of treatment with Souvenaid probably does not reduce the risk of progression to dementia in people with prodromal AD. There is no convincing evidence that Souvenaid affects other outcomes important to people with AD in the prodromal stage or mild-to-moderate stages of dementia. Conflicting evidence on combined cognitive-functional outcomes in prodromal AD and mild AD dementia warrants further investigation. Adverse effects of Souvenaid seem to be uncommon, but the evidence synthesised in this review does not permit us to make a definitive statement on the long-term tolerability of Souvenaid. The effects of Souvenaid in more severe AD dementia or in people with AD at risk of nutritional deficiencies remain unclear.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Weight loss, malnutrition and dehydration are common problems for people with dementia. Environmental modifications such as, change of routine, context or ambience at mealtimes, or behavioural modifications, such as education or training of people with dementia or caregivers, may be considered to try to improve food and fluid intake and nutritional status of people with dementia. OBJECTIVES Primary: To assess the effects of environmental or behavioural modifications on food and fluid intake and nutritional status in people with dementia. Secondary: To assess the effects of environmental or behavioural modifications in connection with nutrition on mealtime behaviour, cognitive and functional outcomes and quality of life, in specific settings (i.e. home care, residential care and nursing home care) for different stages of dementia. To assess the adverse consequences or effects of the included interventions. SEARCH METHODS We searched the Specialized Register of Cochrane Dementia and Cognitive Improvement (ALOIS), MEDLINE, Eembase, PsycINFO, CINAHL, ClinicalTrials.gov and the World Health Organization (WHO) portal/ICTRP on 17 January 2018. We scanned reference lists of other reviews and of included articles. SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) investigating interventions designed to modify the mealtime environment of people with dementia, to modify the mealtime behaviour of people with dementia or their caregivers, or both, with the intention of improving food and fluid intake. We included people with any common dementia subtype. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two review authors independently selected studies, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included trials. We assessed the quality of evidence for each outcome using the GRADE approach. MAIN RESULTS We included nine studies, investigating 1502 people. Three studies explicitly investigated participants with Alzheimer's disease; six did not specify the type of dementia. Five studies provided clear measures to identify the severity of dementia at baseline, and overall very mild to severe stages were covered. The interventions and outcome measures were diverse. The overall quality of evidence was mainly low to very low.One study implemented environmental as well as behavioural modifications by providing additional food items between meals and personal encouragement to consume them. The control group received no intervention. Differences between groups were very small and the quality of the evidence from this study was very low, so we are very uncertain of any effect of this intervention.The remaining eight studies implemented behavioural modifications.Three studies provided nutritional education and nutrition promotion programmes. Control groups did not receive these programmes. After 12 months, the intervention group showed slightly higher protein intake per day (mean difference (MD) 0.11 g/kg, 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.01 to 0.23; n = 78, 1 study; low-quality evidence), but there was no clear evidence of a difference in nutritional status assessed with body mass index (BMI) (MD -0.26 kg/m² favouring control, 95% CI -0.70 to 0.19; n = 734, 2 studies; moderate-quality evidence), body weight (MD -1.60 kg favouring control, 95% CI -3.47 to 0.27; n = 656, 1 study; moderate-quality evidence), or score on Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) (MD -0.10 favouring control, 95% CI -0.67 to 0.47; n = 656, 1 study; low-quality evidence). After six months, the intervention group in one study had slightly lower BMI (MD -1.79 kg/m² favouring control, 95% CI -1.28 to -2.30; n = 52, 1 study; moderate-quality evidence) and body weight (MD -8.11 kg favouring control, 95% CI -2.06 to -12.56; n = 52, 1 study; moderate-quality evidence). This type of intervention may have a small positive effect on food intake, but little or no effect, or a negative effect, on nutritional status.Two studies compared self-feeding skills training programmes. In one study, the control group received no training and in the other study the control group received a different self-feeding skills training programme. For both comparisons the quality of the evidence was very low and we are very uncertain whether these interventions have any effect.One study investigated general training of nurses to impart knowledge on how to feed people with dementia and improve attitudes towards people with dementia. Again, the quality of the evidence was very low so that we cannot be certain of any effect.Two studies investigated vocal or tactile positive feedback provided by caregivers while feeding participants. After three weeks, the intervention group showed an increase in calories consumed per meal (MD 200 kcal, 95% CI 119.81 to 280.19; n = 42, 1 study; low-quality evidence) and protein consumed per meal (MD 15g, 95% CI 7.74 to 22.26; n = 42, 1 study; low-quality evidence). This intervention may increase the intake of food and liquids slightly; nutritional status was not assessed. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS Due to the quantity and quality of the evidence currently available, we cannot identify any specific environmental or behavioural modifications for improving food and fluid intake in people with dementia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega-3 PUFAs) from fish and plant sources are commonly considered as a promising non-medical alternative to improve brain functions and slow down the progression of dementia. This assumption is mostly based on findings of preclinical studies and epidemiological research. Resulting explanatory models aim at the role omega-3 PUFAs play in the development and integrity of the brain's neurons, their protective antioxidative effect on cell membranes and potential neurochemical mechanisms directly related to Alzheimer-specific pathology. Epidemiological research also found evidence of malnutrition in people with dementia. Considering this and the fact that omega-3 PUFA cannot be synthesised by humans, omega-3 PUFAs might be a promising treatment option for dementia. OBJECTIVES To assess the efficacy and safety of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) supplementation for the treatment of people with dementia. SEARCH METHODS We searched the Specialized Register of the Cochrane Dementia and Cognitive Improvement Group (ALOIS), MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, ClinicalTrials.gov and the World Health Organization (WHO) portal/ICTRP on 10 December 2015. We contacted manufacturers of omega-3 supplements and scanned reference lists of landmark papers and included articles. SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) in which omega-3 PUFA in the form of supplements or enriched diets were administered to people with Alzheimer's disease (AD), vascular dementia (VaD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD) or frontotemporal dementia (FTD). DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS The primary outcome measures of interest were changes in global and specific cognitive functions, functional performance, dementia severity and adverse effects. Two review authors independently selected studies, extracted data and assessed the quality of trials according to the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. We rated the quality of the evidence using the GRADE approach. We received unpublished data from the trial authors and collected adverse effects information from the published articles. We conducted meta-analyses for available outcome measures at six months. MAIN RESULTS We included three comparable randomised, placebo-controlled trials investigating omega-3 PUFA supplements in 632 participants with mild to moderate AD over six, 12 and 18 months. We found no studies investigating other types of dementia. All trials were of high methodological quality. The overall quality of evidence for most of the outcomes was high.There was no evidence of a benefit from omega-3 PUFAs on cognitive function when measured at six months with the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale - Cognitive subscale (standardised mean difference (SMD) -0.02, 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.19 to 0.15; 566 participants; 3 studies; high quality evidence) or Mini-Mental State Examination (mean difference (MD) 0.18, 95% CI -1.05 to 1.41; 202 participants; 2 studies; high quality evidence) or on activities of daily living (SMD -0.02, 95% CI -0.19 to 0.16; 544 participants; 2 studies; high quality evidence). There was also no effect at six months of treatment on severity of dementia measured with the Clinical Dementia Rating - Sum of Boxes (MD -0.00, 95% CI -0.58 to 0.57; 542 participants; 2 studies; high quality evidence) or on quality of life measured with the Quality of Life Alzheimer's Disease scale (MD -0.10, 95% CI -1.28 to 1.08; 322 participants; 1 study; high quality evidence). There was no difference at six months on mental health measured with the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MD -0.10, 95% CI -0.74 to 0.54; 178 participants: 1 study; high quality of evidence) or the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (SMD 0.10, 95% CI -0.07 to 0.27; 543 participants; 2 studies; high quality of evidence). One very small study showed a benefit for omega-3 PUFAs in instrumental activities of daily living after 12 months of treatment (MD -3.50, 95% CI -4.30 to -2.70; 22 participants; moderate quality evidence). The included studies did not measure specific cognitive function. The studies did not report adverse events well. Two studies stated that all adverse events were mild and that they did not differ in overall frequency between omega-3 PUFA and placebo groups. Data from one study showed no difference between groups in frequency of any adverse event (risk ratio (RR) 1.02, 95% CI 0.95 to 1.10; 402 participants; 1 study; moderate quality evidence) or any serious adverse event (RR 1.05, 95% CI 0.78 to 1.41; 402 participants; 1 study; high quality evidence) at 18 months of treatment. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS We found no convincing evidence for the efficacy of omega-3 PUFA supplements in the treatment of mild to moderate AD. This result was consistent for all outcomes relevant for people with dementia. Adverse effects of omega-3 PUFAs seemed to be low, but based on the evidence synthesised in this review, we cannot make a final statement on tolerability. The effects on other populations remain unclear.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES To describe the experience of female patients living with breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) to gain a comprehensive understanding of this experience. The review is designed as a qualitative meta-synthesis. DATA SOURCES Electronic searches were conducted in MEDLINE®, CINAHL®, EMBASE, PsycINFO, and Social Sciences Citation Index. Articles were included where researchers used qualitative research methods and when a comprehensive description of methods and the study's findings were provided. DATA SYNTHESIS From 2,185 references, 13 articles were included. A total of 94 author and participant aggregations were extracted, qualitatively assessed, and assigned to one of 14 categories. Four themes relating to the experience of living with BCRL were identified: experience of everyday life, energy sapping, personal empowerment, and contribution of others. CONCLUSIONS Requirements of living with BCRL may only be influenced to a limited extent by the women themselves. They struggle with their situation, appearance, and the concomitant uncertainties. They feel strengthened where they succeed in developing a helpful view of their situation and where support structures are available to them. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING Professionals can employ this meta-synthesis by contextualizing it as part of a process of critical reflection on their own endeavors to meet the requirements of women living with BCRL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A chronic wound is defined as an area where the skin is not intact that fails to heal within eight weeks. Such wounds usually develop on the lower limbs as a complication of diabetes, venous insufficiency, or inadequate arterial perfusion. Most of the roughly 45,000 limb amputations performed in Germany each year are necessitated by non-healing chronic wounds. METHODS In the development of this S3 guideline, a systematic search was performed that yielded 4998 references including 38 randomized, controlled trials and 26 systematic reviews, which were used as the basis for the recommendations and statements made in the guideline. Twelve member societies of the umbrella Association of Scientific Medical Societies in Germany (Arbeitsgemeinschaft der Wissenschaftlichen Medizinischen Fachgesellschaften, AWMF), as well as the German Association of Nursing Science (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Pflegewissenschaft, and patient representatives participated in the consensus rounds in which the guideline's recommendations and statements were agreed upon. RESULTS This guideline contains seven evidence-based recommendations and 30 good clinical practice (GCP) recommendations. Evidence-based recommendations are given in favor of hydrogel, hyperbaric oxygenation, and integrated care, and against the use of medicinal honey and growth factors. Terms are defined precisely in order to ease communication and to specify what is meant by "wound debridement" (a procedure performed by a physician) as opposed to cleansing a wound. Under the premise of preventing pain, exudation, and maceration, local therapeutic agents can be chosen on the basis of the scientific evidence, the patient's preference, the physician's experience, and the wound situation. Costs should also be considered. CONCLUSION Scant evidence is available to answer many of the relevant questions about chronic wounds. There are valid data in support of hyperbaric oxygen and integrated care. More research is needed.
