Search performed from May 31 to June 2, 2021. In order to identify the potentially relevant studies, search strategies were applied in MEDLINE (via PubMed) and adjusted for the other databases (Embase and LILACS). Gray literature (papers published but not peer-reviewed) was searched in ArXiv, Medrxiv, Biorxiv, and Open Gray. Repositories accessed were Figshare, Github, Zenodo, and Dryad. Additionally, reference lists of included studies were hand-searched to identify potentially eligible studies. The searches were carried out from May 31 to June 2, 2021.
