Abstract, Page 2INTRODUCTION Rationale 3Describe the rationale for the review in the context of what is already known. Background, Last paragraph, Page 4Objectives 4Provide an explicit statement of questions being addressed with reference to participants, interventions, comparisons, outcomes, and study design (PICOS). Background, Last paragraph, Page 4METHODS Protocol and registration 5Indicate if a review protocol exists, if and where it can be accessed (e.g., Web address), and, if available, provide registration information including registration number. N/AEligibility criteria 6Specify study characteristics (e.g., PICOS, length of follow-up) and report characteristics (e.g., years considered, language, publication status) used as criteria for eligibility, giving rationale. Methods, Figure 1. Page 6Information sources 7Describe all information sources (e.g., databases with dates of coverage, contact with study authors to identify additional studies) in the search and date last searched. Methods, Paragraph 1Search 8Present full electronic search strategy for at least one database, including any limits used, such that it could be repeated. Methods, page 5Study selection 9State the process for selecting studies (i.e., screening, eligibility, included in systematic review, and, if applicable, included in the meta-analysis). Methods, page 5Data collection process 10Describe method of data extraction from reports (e.g., piloted forms, independently, in duplicate) and any processes for obtaining and confirming data from investigators. Methods, page 5Data items 11List and define all variables for which data were sought (e.g., PICOS, funding sources) and any assumptions and simplifications made. N/ARisk of bias in individual studies 12Describe methods used for assessing risk of bias of individual studies (including specification of whether this was done at the study or outcome level), and how this information is to be used in any data synthesis. N/ASummary measures 13State the principal summary measures (e.g., risk ratio, difference in means). N/A Synthesis of results 14Describe the methods of handling data and combining results of studies, if done, including measures of consistency (e.g., I2) for each meta-analysis. N/A Page 1 of 2 Section/topic #Checklist item Reported on page # Risk of bias across studies 15Specify any assessment of risk of bias that may affect the cumulative evidence (e.g., publication bias, selective reporting within studies). N/A Additional analyses 16Describe methods of additional analyses (e.g., sensitivity or subgroup analyses, meta-regression), if done, indicating which were pre-specified. N/ARESULTS Study selection 17Give numbers of studies screened, assessed for eligibility, and included in the review, with reasons for exclusions at each stage, ideally with a flow diagram. Table 1. Page 7Study characteristics 18For each study, present characteristics for which data were extracted (e.g., study size, PICOS, follow-up period) and provide the citations. Under subheadings of Preventions, Control and safety.Risk of bias within studies 19Present data on risk of bias of each study and, if available, any outcome level assessment (see item 12). N/AResults of individual studies 20For all outcomes considered (benefits or harms), present, for each study: (a) simple summary data for each intervention group (b) effect estimates and confidence intervals, ideally with a forest plot. Under subheadings of Preventions, Control and safety.Synthesis of results 21Present results of each meta-analysis done, including confidence intervals and measures of consistency. N/ARisk of bias across studies 22Present results of any assessment of risk of bias across studies (see Item 15). N/AAdditional analysis 23Give results of additional analyses, if done (e.g., sensitivity or subgroup analyses, meta-regression [see Item 16]). N/ADISCUSSION Summary of evidence 24Summarize the main findings including the strength of evidence for each main outcome; consider their relevance to key groups (e.g., healthcare providers, users, and policy makers). Paragraph 1- page 13-14Limitations 25Discuss limitations at study and outcome level (e.g., risk of bias), and at review-level (e.g., incomplete retrieval of identified research, reporting bias). N/A Conclusions 26Provide a general interpretation of the results in the context of other evidence, and implications for future research. Page 17FUNDING Funding 27Describe sources of funding for the systematic review and other support (e.g., supply of data); role of funders for the systematic review.
