Contributions of authors

Kayleigh Kew (KK) wrote the Background and Methods sections of this review (based on the standard template), with clinical advice and input from Robin Carr (RC) and Iain Crossingham (IC). KK screened all references, extracted data for all studies and assessed risk of bias. Duplicate data extraction and risk of bias were provided by a member of the editorial team (Rebecca Normansell). KK performed the meta‐analyses, graded the evidence and led the write‐up, with support, feedback and input from RC and IC.

    Evidence to guide care in adults and children with asthma, 13/89/14

    This project was supported by the NIHR, via Cochrane Infrastructure, Cochrane Programme Grant or Cochrane Incentive funding to the Cochrane Airways Group. The views and opinions expressed therein are those of the review authors and do not necessarily reflect those of the Systematic Reviews Programme, the NIHR, the NHS or the Department of Health

Declarations of interest

KK: none.

RC: none that are relevant to the interventions considered in this review. RC is a part‐time Partnership General Practitioner (GP). He works as the long‐term conditions lead for the Oxfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group for respiratory illness and was the Medical Director of the Somerset chronic obstructive pulmonary disease service until October 2014. He received a salary from each of these employers. He organised primary care education for over 20 years and received honoraria from GlaxoSmithKline, Boehringer Ingelheim, AstraZeneca and Chiesi over the past 36 months for presenting lectures to primary care staff. He received travel reimbursement for attending a Cochrane Airways Group meeting in 2014, and again in 2015.

IC: none.

We are very grateful for responses from study authors, Hyekyun Rhee and Nihaya Al‐Sheyab.

Rebecca Normansell was the Editor for this review and commented critically on both the protocol and the full review and assisted with duplicate data extraction.

Lay‐led and peer support interventions for adolescents with asthma

Protocol

Kayleigh M Kew, Robin Carr, Iain Crossingham

https://doi.org/10.1002/14651858.CD012331

Differences between protocol and review

We planned that IC and RC would share the duplicate extraction and risk of bias judgements, but this was done by a member of the editorial team owing to work commitments. It was not possible to carry out meta‐analyses for all outcomes or to carry out planned subgroup or sensitivity analyses.

Outcome

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).

*The basis for the assumed risk (e.g. median control group risk across studies) is provided in footnotes. The corresponding risk (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).
ACQ: asthma control questionnaire; ACT: asthma control test; CI: confidence interval; ICS: inhaled corticosteroid; MCID: minimal clinically important difference; PAQLQ: Paediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire; RCT: randomised controlled trial; RR: risk ratio; SANDS: Self‐Administered Nicotine Dependence Scale.

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence.

High quality: We are very confident that the true effect lies close to the estimate of effect.
Moderate quality: We are moderately confident in the effect estimate: The true effect is likely to be close to the estimate of effect but may be substantially different.
Low quality: Our confidence in the effect estimate is limited: The true effect may be substantially different from the estimate of 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.

aDowngraded for risk of bias. Outcome measured on a self‐rated scale. Likely to be affected by both performance and detection biases.

bDowngraded for inconsistency (I2 = 71%). Random‐effects analysis used as planned, resulting in wide confidence intervals that just cross the line of no effect. Sensitivy analysis with a fixed‐effect model showed much tighter CIs around a mean difference of 0.16 (0.06 to 0.26). Not downgraded for imprecision.

cConfidence intervals favour the intervention, but the effect is based on one study of 251 people (downgraded for imprecision).

dTwo other studies reported the measure but did not plan a responder analysis (not downgraded for publication bias).

eDowngraded for imprecision. Point estimates favoured the intervention, but lower confidence limits do not rule out possible harm.
