Contributions of authors

PW registered the title, wrote the protocol, carried out searching and identified studies for inclusion. PW & RAM carried out data extraction, analysis, and drafting. All authors contributed to the final draft and approved the published version.

For this update, RAM and SD searched for additional studies. The updated Methods are taken from a template protocol for antiepileptics in neuropathic pain and fibromyalgia. SD, RAM and PW reassessed studies for inclusion. All authors contributed to the final draft and approved the published version.

PW will be responsible for updates.

Differences between protocol and review

The major difference between the original protocol and the 2010 update was the concentration on issues of methodological validity and bias that have emerged subsequently ‐ namely on size, on duration, on outcome, and potentially on a dependence on cross‐over designs. These are commented on and referenced in this updated review.

For this update we changed the title to reflect the clinical use of carbamazepine for pain relief, and to bring it in line with other reviews of antiepileptic drugs used to treat neuropathic pain and fibromyalgia; these reviews are included in an overview (Wiffen 2013a). As part of an ongoing drive to improve the standard of evidence in reviews we chose to exclude studies that were not double blind and did not have at least 10 participants per treatment arm. We also considered the implications of incomplete outcome assessment, and have analysed results according to the strength of the evidence (in three tiers).

The small amount of information relating to acute pain from the earlier review has been moved to Appendix 2.

Notes

Review methods been substantially amended following a search for new trials up to June 2010. Methods used have been further amended in 2013 to bring it in line with current standards of evidence in chronic pain, and following new searches to bring the evidence up to date.

A restricted search in February 2018 did not identify any potentially relevant studies likely to change the conclusions. The authors and editors are confident that further research will not change the conclusions. Therefore, this review has now been stabilised following discussion with the authors and editors. If appropriate, we will update the review if new evidence likely to change the conclusions is published, or if standards change substantially which necessitate major revisions.

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).

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.

NNT: number needed to treat for an additional beneficial effect: NNH: number needed to treat for an additional harmful effect; RR: risk ratio; VAS: visual analogue scale.
