CRD SUMMARY: This review found limited evidence that Tai Chi Chuan was effective in reducing falls and blood-pressure in the elderly. Given the origin of the intervention, the possibility of language and publication bias cannot be discounted. However, the review authors usefully identify the methodological limitations of the available evidence and point to the need for further research.
