Objective To explore the rehabilitation effects of musicokinetic therapy on perimenopausal syndrome, so as to provide scientific basis for the treatment of perimenopausal syndrome. Methods Perimenopausal women living in Yiyang city were screened and then 100 cases aged 45 to 55 years with Kupperman score ≥15 and depression score (SDS) ≥0.5 were selected. They were then divided into two groups (experimental group: 50 cases treated by musicokinetic therapy; control group: 50 cases). Evaluation was taken using Kupperman scale and SDS scale 24 weeks after training. Results Compared to the control group, Kupperman scores and SDS scores in the musicokinetic therapy group were lower with a significant difference (Plt;0.01). There were significant differences in Kupperman scores and SDS scores (Plt;0.01) and in the single items of Kupperman scores in the musicokinetic therapy group before and after the experiment (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Musicokinetic therapy could significantly alleviate physical and psychological status of women with perimenopausal syndrome.
Twenty adult healthy rabbits were divided into 2 groups at random. Under the identical experimental conditions, cut the trunk of the right facial nerve. Two weeks later. the caudal end of the divided facial nerve was anastomized with the cephalad end of the divided main trunk of the nerve to the masseter muscle. The experimental group was stimulated by music, twenty minutes of each time, three times a day. From the results it was noted that the rate of growth of the nerve in the experimental group was more rapid than that of the contril group.
Objective To evaluate the effect of music therapy for childbirth. Methods Such databases as The Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, EBSCO host, SpringerLINK Online Journals, CBM and WanFang Data were searched from January of 2000 to December of 2010 to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of music therapy for childbirth. The quality of RCTs was appraised and the data were extracted. Meta-analyses were conducted with RevMan5.02 software for the standarded RCTs. Results A total of nine RCTs were included. Five RCTs indicated the music therapy could alleviate the labor pain; five RCTs indicated the music therapy could reduce the event risk of cesarean section due to the failure of transvaginal trial labor; three RCTs indicated the music therapy could shorten the first stage of labor; two RCTs indicated the music therapy could stabilize the systolic pressure and heart rate when complete cervical dilation was done, and three RCTs indicated the music therapy could relieve anxiety. In addition, music therapy had no influence on neonate Apgar’s score; and the result of meta-analyses on postpartum hemorrhage was not reliable through sensitivity analyses. Conclusion The music therapy applied during childbirth can relieve the labor pain and anxiety, stabilize the heart rate and systolic pressure when complete cervical dilation is done, reduce the event risk of cesarean section due to the failure of transvaginal trial labor, shorten the first stage of labor, and is beneficial to the mind and body of parturient.
Objective To investigate the effect of music therapy plus selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors （SSRIs） on emotion and bum wound healing in bum patients. Methods Moderate and severe bum inpatient.s, aged 12-60 years were selected. Emotional problems were then measured by the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression and Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety within three days after bum injury. Bum patients with depression and anxiety were randomly allocated into the trial group （28 patients） and the control group （27 patients）. Music therapy and SSRIs plus conventional burn care Were applied to the trial group, and conventional bum care to the control group, both for 30 days. The scores of anxiety, depression and the degree of bum wound healing were assessed. Results The differences of depression score and anxiety score before and after treatment were 13. 7 ±6.43 and 6.43 ±2.72 respectively in the trial group, and 4. 74 ±6.75 and 4.44 ±3.36 respectively in the control group. This showed both scores significantly improved compared with the control group （P 〈0. 05）. The time for burn wound healing was shortened in the treatment group （P 〈0. 05）. The anxiety score was positively correlated with bum index, and so was the depression score （P 〈 0.05 ）. Conclusions The anxiety and depression scores are positively correlated with the burn index. Music therapy plus SSrIs can ameliorate the emotional problems （ depression and anxiety）, and shorten the time for burn wound heating.
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of music therapy on quality of life in patients with gynecologic malignant tumor undergoing chemotherapy. MethodsA hundred patients diagnosed to have gynecologic malignant tumor between January and June 2013 were included in our study. They were divided into intervention group and control group with 50 patients in each. Traditional nursing was given to the patients in the control group, while patients in the intervention group accepted routine and music therapy at the same time. Quality of life questionare C30 scale was used to measure related indexes before and after the intervention. ResultsPhysical function, emotional function, cognitive function, and overall health status for patients in the intervention group changed significantly after the intervention (P<0.05). ConclusionMusic therapy can effectively improve the quality of life in patients with gynecologic malignant tumor undergoing chemotherapy.
Objective To explore the intervention effect of music therapy on children with autism spectrum disorder. Methods The China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, Chongqing VIP, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library were searched by computer to comprehensively collect randomized controlled trials on the intervention effect of music therapy on children with autism spectrum disorder. The search period was from the establishment of the database to December 31, 2022. RevMan 5.4 software was used for meta-analysis. Results Finally, 20 articles were included, including 913 cases in the music therapy group and 811 cases in the control group, with a total sample size of 1724 cases. The meta-analysis results showed that the overall treatment effect [standardized mean difference (SMD)=−0.95, 95% confidence interval (CI) (−1.12, −0.78)], the treatment effect of language [SMD=−0.71, 95%CI (−0.84, −0.57)], behavior [SMD=−0.65, 95%CI (−0.78, −0.52)], social interaction [SMD=−0.52, 95%CI (−0.63, −0.40)], cognition [SMD=1.37, 95%CI (1.00, 1.74)] and sensory perception [SMD=−0.89, 95%CI (−1.03, −0.74)] of the music therapy group were better than those of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The existing data show that music therapy applied to children with autism spectrum disorder can effectively improve their language, behavior, social interaction, cognition, and sensory perception, thereby having a positive impact on the overall treatment effect of children. However, due to the limitations of the number and quality of included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify.
