Risk of bias Overall The overall risk of bias reported in the table corresponds to the highest risk of bias for the outcomes assessed for the systematic review	Some concerns
General comment	In addition to all available versions of the pre-print article, the study registry was used in data extraction and risk of bias assessment. This is the report for a proof of concept study however the trial registry for this study reflects a Phase 2/3 RCT with a target sample size of 180 participants. This study did not achieve the target sample size reported in the registry. There is no change from the trial registration in the intervention and control treatments. No protocol or pre-specified statistical analysis plan are available. There is no change from the trial registration in the primary and most secondary outcomes. One secondary outcome (occurrence of acute kidney injury) is reported in the registry and not in the pre-print. The primary outcome, TTCI is not reported, neither are the secondary outcomes of clinical status at D7, D14, D21 based on the TTCI scale.
