Differences between protocol and review

The original versions of this review did have a different protocol (Roberts 2000, Roberts 2007), which is reproduced in this version (Appendix 2). RevMan 5 (RevMan 2008) has necessitated improvements in methods in all Cochrane reviews and we have tried to comply with these without substantively diverging from the original intent of the earlier versions. However, this did mean using random‐effects analyses ‐ we think this is an overall improvement to the review without materially effecting the results of the review.

We did not anticipate a trial of retrospective prayer and only having discovered the Leibovici 2001 study did we really consider how to handle these data. We decided to include this study in a separate comparison for the 2010 update.

PICO

Outcome

El uso y la enseñanza del modelo PICO están muy extendidos en el ámbito de la atención sanitaria basada en la evidencia para formular preguntas y estrategias de búsqueda y para caracterizar estudios o metanálisis clínicos. PICO son las siglas en inglés de cuatro posibles componentes de una pregunta de investigación: paciente, población o problema; intervención; comparación; desenlace (outcome).
