Core Tip |
Previous meta-analyses did not consider patient status (if inpatient or outpatient) for inclusion in the studies and grouped different types of patients. They also failed to conduct analyses by subgroups (regimen schedule, volume of polyethylene glycol solution, dietary restriction) in order to elucidate confounding factors. This is the first systematic review and meta-analysis for this specific group of patients and the first to communicate effectiveness in the use of NNT. |
