Title
Effects of menthol on breathing sensations: A systematic review
Review Question
What effect does menthol have on perceptual and physiological respiratory outcomes in humans? Objectives of this review are to describe: 1.) Methods of menthol administration [including products and formulations]. 2.) Comparators and contexts [laboratory, clinical settings]. 3.) Population groups recruited into menthol studies. 4.) Outcomes [perceptual, physiological, adverse events] reported in previous studies.
Study Type Included
Inclusion: All full text primary studies published in peer reviewed journals [Including experimental, non-experimental and qualitative studies]. Exclusion Grey literature [non peer reviewed], secondary analysis of primary data sets, reviews, editorials and conference abstracts.
Condition Being Studied
Chronic breathlessness is a feeling of breathing discomfort which persists despite optimal medical management and is a common distressing symptom of a wide range of chronic health conditions. Menthol has been proposed as having potential to reduce sensations of breathlessness.
Participant
Inclusion: All human participants across all age groups and health status. Excluded: Animal /mathematical modelling studies.
Animal
Human Disease Modelled
Intervention
Inclusion: All available full text primary studies which report: 1.) Administration of menthol to participants as part of an intervention. 2.) Perceptual or physiological respiratory outcomes. Eligible studies may include: - The use of menthol or any of its stereo-isomers, or commercial products containing menthol in the formulation. - All intervention lengths including acute studies. - All contexts (Community based, clinical trials etc) and intervention methodologies (exercise interventions, passive breathing etc) - Use of cigarettes or vape products containing menthol. Exclusion: Studies will be excluded if: - Menthol has been used for alternate reasons and respiratory outcomes have not been reported. For example, the use of topical creams for muscular pain.
Comparator Control
All comparators are eligible for inclusion.
Main Outcome
The primary outcomes of interest for this review concern respiratory perceptions and physiological assessments. Rather than pre-specify outcomes, we are interested in describing which perceptual and/or physiological outcomes [including adverse events] have been used to explore effect of menthol. Measures of effect Main outcomes will be reported descriptively. Where available, effect size (standardised mean difference, 95% Confidence limits) will be reported/calculated for the respiratory outcomes [perceptual and physiological] based on mean, standard deviation and sample size for each outcome where available.
