Differences between protocol and review
In this 2010 update we assessed risk of bias using new methods, and added a 'Summary of findings' table. The protocol was changed to exclude quasi‐RCTs, because RCTs are thought to be the only way to prevent systematic differences of baseline characteristics between intervention groups, according to the latest Corchrane Handbook. However, no quasi‐RCTs were found.
