Sequence generation (Selection bias)

Investigators described a random component in the sequence generation process such as the use of random number table, coin tossing, cards or envelope shuffling

Investigators described a non‐random component in the sequence generation process such as the use of odd or even date of birth, algorithm based on the day/date of birth, hospital or clinic record number

Insufficient information to permit judgement of the sequence generation process

Allocation concealment (Selection bias)

Participants and the investigators enrolling participants cannot foresee assignment, e.g. central allocation; or sequentially numbered, opaque, sealed envelopes

Participants and investigators enrolling participants can foresee upcoming assignment, e.g. an open random allocation schedule (e.g. a list of random numbers); or envelopes were unsealed or non­opaque or not sequentially numbered

Insufficient information to permit judgement of the allocation concealment or the method not described

Blinding

of participants and providers (Performance bias)

Objective outcomes

No blinding or incomplete blinding, but the review authors judge that the outcome is not likely to be influenced by lack of blinding

Blinding of participants and key study personnel ensured, and unlikely that the blinding could have been broken

No blinding or incomplete blinding, and the outcome is likely to be influenced by lack of blinding

Blinding of key study participants and personnel attempted, but likely that the blinding could have been broken, and the outcome is likely to be influenced by lack of blinding

Insufficient information to permit judgement of low or high risk

Blinding

Subjective outcomes

Blinding of participants and providers and unlikely that the blinding could have been broken

Insufficient information to permit judgement of low or high risk

Incomplete outcome data

No missing outcome data, reasons for missing outcome data unlikely to be related to true outcome, or missing outcome data balanced in number across groups

For dichotomous outcome data, the proportion of missing outcomes compared with observed event risk not enough to have a clinically relevant impact on the intervention effect estimate

For continuous outcome data, plausible effect size (difference in means or standardised difference in means) among missing outcomes not enough to have a clinically relevant impact on observed effect size

Missing data have been imputed using appropriate methods

All randomised patients are reported/analysed in the group they were allocated to by randomisation irrespective of non‐compliance and co‐interventions (intention to treat)

Reason for missing outcome data likely to be related to true outcome, with either imbalance in number across groups or reasons for missing data

For dichotomous outcome data, the proportion of missing outcomes compared with observed event risk enough to induce clinically relevant bias in intervention effect estimate

For continuous outcome data, plausible effect size (difference in means or standardised difference in means) among missing outcomes enough to induce clinically relevant bias in observed effect size

‘As‐treated’ analysis done with substantial departure of the intervention received from that assigned at randomisation

Insufficient reporting of attrition or exclusions (e.g. number randomised not stated, no reasons for missing data provided; number of drop out not reported for each group)

Selective reporting

A protocol is available which clearly states the primary outcome as the same as in the final trial report

The study protocol is not available but it is clear that the published reports include all expected outcomes, including those that were pre‐specified (convincing text of this nature may be uncommon)

The primary outcome differs between the protocol and final trial report

One or more reported primary outcomes were not pre‐specified (unless clear justification for their reporting is provided, such as an unexpected adverse effect)

One or more outcomes of interest in the review are reported incompletely so that they cannot be entered in a meta‐analysis

The study report fails to include results for a key outcome that would be expected to have been reported for such a study

No trial protocol is available or there is insufficient reporting to determine if selective reporting is present

Free of other bias:

Comparability of cohorts for baseline characteristics and outcome measures on the basis of the design or analysis

Exposed and non exposed individuals are matched in the design for most important confounding factors

Authors demonstrated balance between group for the confounders

Analysis are adjusted for most important confounding factors and imbalance

Randomised controlled trial

No matching or no adjustment for most important confounding factor

No information about comparability of cohort

Free of other bias: selection of the non‐exposed cohort

The sample has been drawn from the same community as the exposed cohort

Randomised controlled trial

The sample has been drawn from a different source

No description of the derivation of the non‐exposed cohort

Free of other bias: protection against contamination

Allocation was by community, institution or practice and it is unlikely that the control group received the intervention

Randomised controlled trial

It is likely that the control group received the intervention

It is possible that communication between intervention and control groups could have occurred

Ascertainment of exposure

Information in the study was obtained from a secure record (e.g. clinical records or structured interview)

Randomised controlled trial

Self report

No description

Was the intervention independent of other changes?

Compelling arguments that the intervention occurred independently of other changes over time and the outcome was not influenced by other confounding variables/historic events during study period. If events/variables identified, note what they are

The intervention was not independent of other changes in time

Insufficient information to permit judgement of low or high risk

Was the shape of the intervention effect prespecified?

Point of analysis is the point of intervention OR a rational explanation for the shape of intervention effect was given by the author(s). Where appropriate, this should include an explanation if the point of analysis is NOT the point of intervention

It is clear that the shape of the intervention was not prespecified

Insufficient information to permit judgement of low or high risk

Was the intervention unlikely to affect data collection?

The intervention itself was unlikely to affect data collection (e.g. sources and methods of data collection were the same before and after the intervention)

The intervention itself was likely to affect data collection (e.g. any change in source or method of data collection reported)

Insufficient information to permit judgement of low or high risk

Was knowledge of the allocated interventions adequately prevented during the study?

The authors state explicitly that the primary outcome variables were assessed blindly, or the outcomes are objective, e.g. length of hospital stay. Primary outcomes are those variables that correspond to the primary hypothesis or question as defined by the authors

If the outcomes were not assessed blindly

Insufficient information to permit judgement of low or high risk

Were incomplete outcome data adequately addressed?

(If some primary outcomes were assessed blindly or affected by missing data and others were not, each primary outcome can be scored separately)

Missing outcome measures were unlikely to bias the results (e.g. the proportion of missing data was similar in the pre‐ and post‐intervention periods or the proportion of missing data was less than the effect size, i.e. unlikely to overturn the study result)

Missing outcome data were likely to bias the results. Do not assume 100% follow up unless stated explicitly)

Insufficient information to permit judgement of low or high risk

Was the study free from selective outcome reporting?

There is no evidence that outcomes were selectively reported (e.g. all relevant outcomes in the methods section are reported in the results section)

If some important outcomes are subsequently omitted from the results

Insufficient information to permit judgement of low or high risk

Was the study free from other risks of bias?

There is no evidence of other risks of bias, e.g. should consider if seasonality is an issue (i.e. if January to June comprises the pre‐intervention period and July to December the post, could the 'seasons' have caused a spurious effect)

There is evidence that other risks of bias exist, such as seasonality
