Studies were included only if they were randomized trials of (any type of) spinal manipulation for (any type of) headache in human patients in which spinal manipulation was compared either to no treatment, usual medical care, a 'sham' intervention, or to some other active treatment. Two investigators independently extracted data on study design, sample size and characteristics, type of intervention, type of control/comparison, direction and nature of the outcome(s). Methodological quality of the trials was also assessed using the Jadad scale. Eight trials were identified that met our inclusion criteria. Three examined tension-type headaches, three migraine, one 'cervicogenic' headache, Langue : ANGLAIS Tiré à part : OUI Identifiant basis : 2003225495 |
