Contributions of authors

This review was designed in collaboration with all six authors. K Abba and MA Lansang screened the search results; K Abba retrieved the full papers which met the inclusion criteria. K Abba and V Balanag assessed the eligibility of the retrieved papers, and Q Liu acted as third author for this stage. M Alejandria, R Berba, Q Liu, and V Balanag assessed the risk of bias of the included trials and extracted the data from papers; MA Lansang and K Abba acted as third authors. M Alejandria and Q Liu wrote to authors of papers for additional information. Q Liu entered the data into Review Manager 5, undertook the analysis, and interpreted the data in consultation with the other authors. Q Liu drafted the review, and the other authors provided comments and helped to revise the review.

Differences between protocol and review

We included 'protection against contamination (co‐intervention)' as a new criterion for assessing risk of bias because, when not fulfilled, it could result in bias.

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.
