There was no preceding protocol for this review. Changes from the previous version of the review: we have added details of study selection; day three diet has been eliminated as an outcome measure; and we have been able to analyze pain as an outcome.

PICOs

Population
Intervention
Comparison
Outcome

The PICO model is widely used and taught in evidence-based health care as a strategy for formulating questions and search strategies and for characterizing clinical studies or meta-analyses. PICO stands for four different potential components of a clinical question: Patient, Population or Problem; Intervention; Comparison; Outcome.

See more on using PICO in the Cochrane Handbook.
