“…There are seven ongoing Cochrane SRs (protocols) that will be published in the future. Their aims are to assess new non‐benzodiazepine hypnotics (eszopiclone, zaleplon, zolpidem and zopiclone), 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 ramelteon (melatonin receptor agonist) 28 and pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions for treating insomnia during pregnancy. 29 Additionally, a network meta-analysis is being conducting to compare the efficacy and acceptability of all pharmacological treatments for insomnia among adults.…”

“…Since the data processed were continuous data such as RT, ACC, or Score, we chose to use the standardized mean differences (SMDs) to measure the magnitude of the effect sizes (Takeshima et al, 2014). Otherwise, the vast majority of the included studies did not present data for both phases or each subject.…”

BackgroundCarbohydrates are often used as boosters for endurance and high-intensity exercise. However, it is unclear whether carbohydrate drinks intake before or during exercise can affect specific domains of cognitive function, such as Executive Function (EF).MethodsFollowing the guidance of PRISMA 2020, we searched six major databases including PubMed, WOS, SPORTDiscus, Cochrane, Embase, and Scopus. Outcomes were presented in the form of Reaction Time (RT), Accuracy (ACC), and Scores (Score) for performing EF tests. Effect sizes were calculated from the test results of EF and expressed as standardized mean differences (SMDs). After analyzing the overall results, we performed subgroup analyses based on the athletes’ program characteristics.ResultsAfter retrieving a total of 5,355 articles, ten randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were identified and included in this review. The overall results showed that the intake of carbohydrate drinks before or during exercise did not have a significant effect on the reduction of EF after exercise (ACC (−0.05 [−0.27, 0.18]); RT (−0.18 [−0.45, 0.09]); Score (0.24 [−0.20, 0.68])). The subgroup analyses based on open skill sports and close skill sports also showed invalid results, but the results of RT ended up with different preference (ACC of open skill sports athletes (−0.10 [−0.34, 0.14]); RT of open skill athletes (−0.27 [−0.60, 0.07]); RT of close skill athletes (0.29 [−0.24, 0.82])).ConclusionThe intake of 6–12% of single or mixed carbohydrates before or during exercise was not significantly effective in reducing the decline in EF after exercise. Our findings may have been influenced by the type of intervention, dose, mode of administration, or individual variability of the included subjects.
