Two authors will independently undertake literature selection, data collection and study quality assessment. Any divergences between 2 authors will be settled down by a third author through discussion. RevMan 5.3 software will be used for statistical analysis.ResultsThis study will assess the effectiveness of COLT for patients with ADS.ConclusionsThis study may provide helpful evidence to determine whether COLT is an effective intervention for patients with ADS.Study RegistrationOSF (osf.io/m9ghv).Copyright © 2021 the Author(s).
