High-quality trials (4\/7) all reported positive impacts; as did observational studies rated as high\/moderate quality (3\/9). The benefit of therapy at different time points post-onset and for cases of varying clinical severity is discussed. Differences in study design prevented data pooling to strengthen estimates of therapy effects. Six new review articles identified were all rated critically low quality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The findings of this targeted review reinforce those of the earlier more general Cochrane review.
