Meanwhile, the search was limited to the randomized, controlled trials and humans. Indeed, many articles were found to be associated with our clinical question, nothing was excluded. On the other hand, articles included all major problems in and objective of the paper.Meanwhile almost all articles looked to address the key problems and objectives of the scenario questions. Because, all articles provided the evidence based research that supported statement of the scenario.
