Differences between protocol and review

Sub‐group analyses to assess the efficacy of embryo replacement protocols in different patient groups based on different prognostic characteristics was not performed as planned because most studies did not identify such subgroups. As the data on effectiveness of the interventions compared were insufficient sensitivity analyses were not carried out.

Notes

A new literature search was performed on 30/03/2008 by two reviewers independently (ZP, OO).

Five new trials were identified using the Cochrane search strategy for identifying new trials.Search redesigned and run March 2008 . Three new trials were added to the review.

One trial (Thurin 2004) included blastocyst transfers. Blastocyst transfers were excluded from the data analysed.

Two trials (Thurin2004 and van Montfoort 2006) compared one embryo transfer versus two embryo transfer. One trial (Thurin 2004) also compared one embryo transfer followed by a frozen‐thawed single embryo transfer versus two embryo transfer.

Livebirth rates from Van Montfoort 2006 study was derived from another publication from the same study and appears as van Montfoort* 2006 in the review and references.

A single trial (Heijnen 2006) compared two embryo transfer versus three embryo transfer. The trial also determined the cumulative effect of multiple transfers of two and three embryos.

A trial included in the original review (Lukassen 2002) that compared single embryo transfer versus double embryo was updated and published in 2005. This review has also been updated with this trial.

Two trials (Komori 2004; Mostajeran 2006) that compared three embryo transfer versus two embryo transfer were identified with the new literature search but were excluded as the method of randomisation was unclear in both trials.

The review has been converted into the new Rev man 5 format.

The order of appearance of the comparisons have been changed.

Two additional tables (Table 1 Table 2 ) has been added.

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).
