Meta AnalysisLack of evidence on Tai Chi-related effects in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a meta-analysis.
Whether Tai Chi (TC) benefits patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains controversial. Thus, we performed a meta-analysis to assess the efficacy of TC in T2DM patients. ⋯ Sufficient evidence to support the benefits of TC to T2DM patients is lacking. Further large-scale studies are needed to investigate the long-term efficacy of TC.
