| General comment |
This study is pending author reply. No outcome data (relevant to this review) were reported.
In addition to all available versions of the pre-print, the study registry was used in data extraction and risk of bias assessment. The study as reported in the pre-print article differed from its registration in several regards: the proposed sample size was not reached; two study arms are reported whereas there were three in the registration; a treatment(methylprednisolone) recorded in the registration as being co-administered with Tc-MDP in the treatment arm is not reported in the article; one of two primary outcomes recorded in the registration is not reported, while an outcome not recorded in the registration is reported. |
