Outcomes
The results are graphically depicted in Fig. 2 and 3 for the main outcome and summarized in Table 1 for all outcomes; these results are based on the combination of direct and indirect evidence. Direct evidence is obtained from direct comparisons (e.g., A vs. B), while indirect evidence arises from indirect comparisons (e.g., A vs. B indirect evidence is provided by direct comparison of A vs. C and B vs. C).
