AB  - BACKGROUND: Tai Chi is gaining an increasing popularity in rehabilitation 
      management of chronic conditions. Yet no consensus has reached on its efficacy 
      and safety of type 2 diabetes despite that several systematic reviews (SRs) were 
      published on this topic. Therefore, we will conduct an overview to critically 
      evaluate current SRs and implement an updated metaanalysis with recently 
      published randomized controlled trials (RCTs). METHODS: A systematic literature 
      search of relevant RCTs-based SRs will be conducted in electronic databases 
      including Medline, Embase, the Cochrane Library, the Chinese National Knowledge 
      Infrastructure, the Chinese Biomedical Literature Database from their inceptions 
      to search date without language restrictions. Eligible SRs will be 
      methodologically assessed by the assessment of multiple SRs 2 and Risk of Bias in 
      SRs tool and their RCTs included will be extracted for further evidence 
      synthesis. To update current meta-analysis on this topic, a supplementary search 
      will be implemented for related newly emerged RCTs. Cochrane risk of bias 
      assessment tool will be applied for RCTs quality evaluation. The grading of 
      recommendations assessment, development and evaluation will be utilized for 
      evidence quality assessment of outcomes. Study characteristic information on 
      participants, interventions, outcomes, comparisons and conclusions will be 
      described in detail. Review Manager V5.3 will be used for risk of bias assessment 
      and Stata 14.0 for meta-analysis and sensitivity analysis. RESULTS: The study 
      results will be disseminated through a peer-reviewed journal publication or 
      conference presentation. CONCLUSIONS: This study finding will provide an updated 
      evidence of Tai Chi for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), thus to 
      help inform clinical physicians, T2DM patients and their families to develop 
      better rehabilitation plans and to draw more attention of decision-makers in 
      exercise rehabilitation related policy-making.This study protocol has been 
      applied for registration on PROSPERO platform 
      (https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/), with an assigned ID: CRD42019140988.
