Contributions of authors

Jia Liu and Lu‐Ning Wang formulated the idea for the review and developed the basis for the review. Jia Liu took the primary role in searching, identifying and assessing studies; extracting and analyzing the data; and writing up the full review. Lu‐Ning Wang provided general advice on this review, as well as helping to identify trials, assess studies and extract data. Xin Ma served as the independent third author in selection of studies and assessment of risk of bias. Jia Liu supervised the quality of the methodology and statistics used. The manuscript was written by Jia Liu and Lu‐Ning Wang, and revised by Xunming Ji. Jia Liu will be responsible for updating the review.

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.

In Lyden 2000, the mean change of the NIHSS score was ‐4.5 in the chlormethiazole group (N = 96) and ‐4.0 in the placebo group (N = 102; P = 0.36). In Lyden 2002, the change of NIHSS score (median (quartiles)) was ‐5.5 (‐11, 17) in the chlormethiazole group (N = 586) and ‐6.0 (‐10, 16) in the placebo group (N = 583; P = 0.68).

In Wahlgren 1999, no significant difference was found between the placebo and chlormethiazole groups for the change in score in the SSS 48‐point (P = 0.56) and SSS motor power score (P = 0.96). In Lyden 2000 and Lyden 2002, the change in score in the SSS was not significant in the two groups (P = 0.06 and P = 0.23, respectively).

*The basis for the assumed risk (e.g. the median control group risk across studies) is provided in footnotes. 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).

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.
