We used the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool to assess the risk of bias in individual studies.29 The tool consists of the following seven domains: sequence generation, allocation concealment, blinding of participants and personnel, blinding of outcome assessment, incomplete outcome data, selective outcome reporting and ‘other issues’. Each domain was considered for each of the included studies and the result of the overall risk of bias for each study was assessed and displayed using software RevMan V.5.3.
