Appendix 2. CBCG search (October 2015)

Details regarding the search strategies used by the Cochrane Breast Cancer Group for the identification of studies and procedures used to code references for the Specialised Register are outlined in the Group’s module: www.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/o/cochrane/clabout/articles/BREASTCA/frame.html

The following key words were used to identify relevant studies for consideration: "IUD", "intrauterine devices", "intrauterine system", "levonorgestrel intrauterine system", "levonorgestrel‐releasing intrauterine device", "levonorgestrel‐releasing intrauterine system", "levonorgestrel‐therapeutic use", "LNG‐IUS", "LNG20" and "Mirena".

*The basis for the assumed risk is the median control group risk across studies. The corresponding risk (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on the assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).

CI: Confidence interval; OR: Odds ratio;

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
High quality: We are very confident that the true effect lies close to that of the estimate of the effect
Moderate quality: We are moderately confident in the effect estimate: The true effect is likely to be close to the estimate of the effect, but there is a possibility that it is substantially different
Low quality: Our confidence in the effect estimate is limited: The true effect may be substantially different from the estimate of the effect
Very low quality: We have very little confidence in the effect estimate: The true effect is likely to be substantially different from the estimate of effect

1 limited sample size and low event rate
