“…Following the removal of duplicates, 162 articles were identified as eligible, of which 102 were eliminated after reading of the title and abstract. Finally, after reading the full text, 48 RCTs were included [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 ] in the qualitative synthesis. The studies by Angelova et al [ 59 ], Boyraz et al [ 15 ], Akaltun et al [ 58 ], and Hojjati et al [ 32 ] were excluded from the pooled quantitative analysis because of reporting average values of outcomes without measures of dispersion; hence, deriving data from their report was not possible.…”
