Some concerns |
General comment | In addition to the published article, the trial registries (ChiCTR posted 2020-07-18, recruitment start 2020-07-16, considered a prospective registration as explicitly reported as such and allowing for a delay between submission and final registration; NCT 2020-08-12), protocol, statistical analysis plan, and supplementary materials were used in data extraction and risk of bias assessment. There is no important change from the protocol in the population, procedures, interventions, or outcomes. At the time of the interim analysis (data set lock December 20, 2020, recruitment and randomization (n = 40411) had not yet reached the pre-specified target sample size ( n= 44488). Data collection for final analysis is pending. |
