Contributions of authors

Updated review

Mikkel Allingstrup (MA), Arash Afshari (AA).

MA and AA searched the literature, performed quality assessment and extraction of data from trials, and wrote the review update.

Original published review and first update

All four authors (Alison Avenell, David W Noble, John Barr, Thomas Engelhardt) were involved in protocol development, searched the literature, performed quality assessment and data abstraction of trials, and wrote the review (Avenell 2004).

Differences between protocol and review

In this review update we have revised the first primary endpoint to overall mortality, which is the longest time of follow‐up. Mortality by duration (28 and 90 days) is preserved as our second primary endpoint. We performed a TSA and included it in this review update.

Notes

2015 update: we updated the methods, included full 'Risk of bias' tables and 'Summary of findings' tables. We used TSA.

This review was also updated in 2007 (Avenell 2004). At that time Cochrane updates did not earn a new citation unless they had new authors or a change to conclusions. The 2007 version of this review included three new trials; two of these were previously classified as ongoing trials (Angstwurm 2006; Lindner 2004; Mishra 2007). The conclusions of the 2007 review were unchanged. Therefore the 2007 update did not earn a new citation

We thank Mathew Zacharias, Nathan Pace, Naji Abumrad, Daren Heyland, Saúl Rugeles, Ann Moller, Iveta Simera, Kathie Godfrey and Amy Godfrey Arkle for their help and editorial advice during the preparation of the original review (Avenell 2004).

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).

Trial sequential analysis (TSA) of all trials examining the effect of Selenium supplementation on mortality among critically ill. Using a control event proportion of 32% found in the included trials, with a type 1 error of 5% and a 18% relative risk reduction (80% power), the trial sequential monitoring boundary for benefit is not crossed by the z‐curve. However, these lines are very close to crossing each other which may indicate a probability of lack of random error for the conclusion of an effect of 18% relative risk reduction even though the required information size (N = 2605) has not yet been reached. However, caution must be exerted when interpreting the results of this TSA since all included studies are at high risk of bias and the intervention effect is likely to have been overestimated in the traditional meta‐analysis.

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
High quality: Further research is very unlikely to change our confidence in the estimate of effect.
Moderate quality: Further research is likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and may change the estimate.
Low quality: Further research is very likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and is likely to change the estimate.
Very low quality: We are very uncertain about the estimate.
