Contributions of authors

SD and RAM wrote the protocol, though this was based on a template that had previously been the subject of input from many sources, and which has been subject to extensive peer review.

SD and RAM searched for and selected studies for inclusion.

All review authors were involved in writing the full review.

PW will be responsible for any updates required.

Declarations of interest

PW: none known.

RK has consulted for Grünenthal Ltd (2014 to 2015) and MundiPharma Research (2015), and received lecture fees from Grünenthal Ltd (2013 to 2014), and Pfizer Ltd (2013 to 2014). He is an Associate Professor in Clinical Pharmacy Practice and Advanced Pharmacy Practitioner.

SD: none known.

PC received support from Boston Scientific (2014) for travel and accommodation at a scientific meeting; Boston Scientific does not market paracetamol products. PC is a specialist pain physician and manages patients with chronic pain.

TP: none known; TP is a specialist pain physician and manages patients with neuropathic pain.

RAM has received grant support from RB relating to individual patient level analyses of trial data on ibuprofen in acute pain and the effects of food on drug absorption of analgesics (2013), and from Grünenthal relating to individual patient level analyses of trial data regarding tapentadol in osteoarthritis and back pain (2015). He has received honoraria for attending boards with Menarini concerning methods of analgesic trial design (2014), with Novartis (2014) about the design of network meta‐analyses, and RB on understanding pharmacokinetics of drug uptake (2015).

Differences between protocol and review

We have removed the planned analysis by tiers of evidence as this is largely replaced by GRADE, updated the criteria for assigning a quality level to a body of evidence in line with the latest standards, and extended the description of the GRADE assessment for exceptional circumstances to explain possible decisions.

Notes

A restricted search in March 2018 did not identify any potentially relevant studies likely to change the conclusions. The authors and editors are confident that further research will not change the conclusions. Therefore, this review has now been stabilised following discussion with the authors and editors. If appropriate, we will update the review if new evidence likely to change the conclusions is published, or if standards change substantially which necessitate major revisions.

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).

Descriptors for levels of evidence (EPOC 2015):
High quality: This research provides a very good indication of the likely effect. The likelihood that the effect will be substantially different is low.
Moderate quality: This research provides a good indication of the likely effect. The likelihood that the effect will be substantially different is moderate.
Low quality: This research provides some indication of the likely effect. However, the likelihood that it will be substantially different is high.
Very low quality: This research does not provide a reliable indication of the likely effect. The likelihood that the effect will be substantially different is very high.

Substantially different: a large enough difference that it might affect a decision.
