Contributions of authors

James M. Wright formulated the idea for the review.

Paul Yen and Chen Jin developed the basis for the protocol; furthermore, they will equally share the lead role in searching, identifying and assessing studies, in data extraction and analyses, and in writing up the review.

Colin Dormuth developed the approach to assessing statistical heterogeneity in order to avoid unit of analysis errors, and will perform the statistical analyses.

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.
