“…Of the 90 eligible studies, 17 (18.9%) had low risk of bias [16,22,23,25,35,43,49,53,62,69,70,75,79,81,83,87,103], 55 (61.1%) had moderate risk of bias [15, 26-28, 30-33, 36-42, 45, 46, 48, 50-52, 54, 56, 58-61, 63, 65-68, 71, 72, 76, 77, 80, 82, 85, 86, 88-90, 92, 94, 96, 98-101, 104, 106-109], 8 (8.9%) had high risk of bias [24,34,47,78,91,95,97,102] for all predictors and outcomes. The other ten studies had different risk of bias among reported predictors and outcomes: four studies had high risk of bias [55, 57,73,84,93] and one study had moderate risk of bias for age as a predictor of outcomes [44], five studies had high risk of bias for performance status as a predictor of outcomes [29, 73,74,93,105], and one study had high risk of bias for comorbidities as a predictor of outcomes [64]. Most bias was due to study confounding, statistical analysis, and/or reporting issues.…”
