^aAs intervention arms were coded, rather than whole studies, some trials with multiple intervention arms appear in two of categories.
^bDenotes two intervention arms of this study were coded in the same category.
^cDenotes three intervention arms of this study were coded in the same category.
Percentage reflects the proportion of studies for criteria that are applicable.
