Contributions of authors

IB wrote the review protocol and drafted the final manuscript, searched electronic databases and conference proceedings, screened identified references, selected trials for inclusion, extracted trial data and liaised with trialists, assessed methodological quality, performed statistical analyses and interpreted results. IEH extracted trial data, assessed methodological quality and provided input on draft versions of the protocol and review. MWGB extracted trial data, assessed methodological quality, provided statistical advice and provided input on draft versions of the protocol and review. RdB and DJ provided input on draft versions of the protocol and review. EvE wrote the review protocol and drafted the final manuscript, selected trials for inclusion, extracted trial data, assessed methodological quality and guided statistical analyses and interpretation of results. All review authors approved the final version of this review.

Differences between protocol and review

We had planned to conduct subgroup analyses for trials in patients with different types of SCI or pain and with different types of control interventions. However, the small number of included studies precluded these analyses. For the same reason, we did not perform planned sensitivity analyses for studies with mixed populations including a subgroup with SCI and for trials of different methodological quality (e.g. allocation concealment, blinding, intention‐to‐treat analysis), and we did not perform imputation of missing values.

We had intended to analyse continuous outcomes as mean change from baseline; however, few studies reported mean change from baseline. Comparisons were consequently based on differences between mean values from last measurement.

In the section Unit of analysis issues, we now explain that none of the three included cross‐over trials was included in any meta‐analysis because of large differences in study methods.

In the section Data synthesis, we now explain that meta‐analysis was conducted using the random‐effects model and that the fixed‐effect model was used only to combine data from pairs of similar study groups from two factorial trials in two meta‐analyses. Further, we specify that, for the purpose of meta‐analysis, ordinal outcome data were treated as continuous variables.

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.
