Hsieh CW, Chen C, Su HC, et al. - In this systematic review and meta-analysis, researchers tested the safety and effectiveness of hypertonic saline (HS) in the implementation of treatment with nebulized HS among children with bronchiolitis. A systematic literature search was performed utilizing Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBASE and Airiti Library (Chinese Database) for randomized controlled trials from the beginning to July 2019.
