Differences between protocol and review
We refined the inclusion criteria to exclude trials involving minority groups that were not indigenous to the country of the study. This resulted in the exclusion of a trial included in an earlier version of the review (La Roche 2006).
The risk of bias assessment was updated in 2010 and subsequent issues to reflect recommendations of the Cochraen Risk of bias tool which is described in chapter 8 of the Cochrane handbook (Higgins 2008).
