Abstract

Background: The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Baduanjin exercise for patients with cervical spondylosis (CS).

Methods: We will retrieve a randomized controlled trial of Baduanjin for CS from the following electronic databases establishment to May 2021: The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, Springer, World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wan-fang database, Chinese Scientific Journal Database (VIP), Chinese Biomedical Literature Databases (CBM), and other databases. Two independent researchers will operate article retrieval, duplication removing, screening, quality evaluation, and data analyses by Review Manager (V.5.3.5). Meta-analyses, subgroup analysis, and/or descriptive analysis will be performed based on the included data conditions.

Results: The results of this study will provide researchers in the field of CS with a current synthesis of high-quality evidence.

Conclusion: This conclusion of this study will provide the evidence of whether Baduanjin is an effective and safe intervention for patients with CS.
