Some concerns

Appraisal rationale

Controls were reported, while sequence generation and assessor blinding were unclear.

Appraisal domains

Sequence generation checked where reported · Allocation concealment generally unclear · Personnel blinding generally unclear · Outcome-assessor blinding generally unclear · No prospectively registered analysis plan identified
