TL;DR: There was moderate- quality evidence to support the use of cannabinoids for the treatment of chronic pain and spasticity and low-quality evidence suggesting that cannabinoids were associated with improvements in nausea and vomiting due to chemotherapy, weight gain in HIV infection, sleep disorders, and Tourette syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Honey as a topical treatment for wounds
TL;DR: Honey healed infected post-operative wounds more quickly than antiseptic washes followed by gauze and was associated with fewer adverse events, but it is unclear if there is a difference in rates of adverse events (very low quality evidence) or infection (low quality evidence).
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Alginate dressings for healing diabetic foot ulcers
TL;DR: There is no research evidence to suggest that alginate wound dressings are more effective in healing foot ulcers in people with diabetes than other types of dressing however many trials in this field are very small.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrocolloid dressings for healing diabetic foot ulcers
TL;DR: There is no research evidence to suggest that any type of hydrocolloid wound dressing is more effective in healing diabetic foot ulcers than other types of dressing or a topical cream containing plant extracts.
