Results
The search yielded 12,997 results out of which a total of potential 169 RCTs remained for a subsequent full-text screening. At the latest update, it was decided to exclude RCTs published before 1980. No unpublished eligible RCTs were found. Finally, 17 studies were included in this meta-analysis (see PRISMA flow chart, Figure 1).
