The population was made up of 20 articles, which through inclusion criteria allowed 10 articles to be selected from indexed scientific bases. Results: of the 10 articles, 7/10 (70%) belong to the Asian continent, 2/10 belong to the American continent (20%) and 1/10 belongs to the African continent, they were systematic reviews, Meta-analysis, Quasi-experimental, Trials Random 8/10 are equivalent to (80%), which are of high quality and strong recommendation; 2/10 are equivalent to (20%) which are Case Studies and weak recommendations.
