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).

Para saber más sobre el uso del modelo PICO, puede consultar el Manual Cochrane.

1 Not reported: only included study (Kane 2002*) reported PANSS responder rate, but these data were unusable due to high levels of attrition.
2 Risk of bias: 'very serious' ‐ high attrition in one included study (Kane 2002*) of greater than 50% overall. Research supported by Johnson and Johnson/ Janssen, producers of depot risperidone.
3 Imprecision: 'serious' ‐ only one small study reported data for this comparison.
4 Control risk: mean baseline presented for one individual study.
5 Imprecision: 'serious' ‐ adverse events were reported spontaneously by participants, rather than systematically assessed by the researchers. This could effect the precision of the results as there is only one study (Kane 2002*) addressing this comparison.
6 Imprecision: 'serious'‐ the method of measuring weight gain and threshold for reporting it were not described. This could effect the precision of the results as there is only one study (Kane 2002*) addressing this comparison.

5 Risk of bias: 'very serious' ‐ serious risk of bias as both studies were open‐label and supported by the manufacturers of risperidone depot.
6 Imprecision: 'serious' ‐ possibly serious risk of imprecision in Gaebel 2010* as the aripiprazole arm of this study was very small (n = 45) compared to the risperidone depot (n = 329) arm.

High quality: Further research is very unlikely to change our confidence in the estimate of effect.

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.

1 Risk of bias: 'very serious' ‐ serious risk of bias due to study attrition in excess of 50%.
2 Risk of bias: 'serious' ‐ serious risk of bias as this study was supported by the manufacturers of risperidone depot, and some of the authors are employed by the same.
3 Risk of bias: 'serious' ‐ serious risk of bias due to the open‐label nature of the study.
4 Assumed risk: mean baseline risk from one included study.
