Risk of bias
Bias Authors' judgement Support for judgement
Random sequence generation (selection bias) Unclear risk Quote: "These participants were then randomly placed in either the intervention or control group. The"
Allocation concealment (selection bias) Unclear risk Difficult to judge whether participants and/or investigators could possible foresee assignment. However, it is assumed that randomization was performed in one go and that participants and/or investigators could not foresee assignment.
Blinding of participants and personnel (performance bias)
All outcomes High risk Participants were not blinded. 
Blinding of outcome assessment (detection bias)
All outcomes High risk Participants were not blinded whereas outcomes are self‐reported.
Incomplete outcome data (attrition bias)
All outcomes High risk Not reported whether lost to follow‐up was at random. 40% lost.
Selective reporting (reporting bias) Unclear risk No protocol registration, nor did we find one.
Other bias Unclear risk Low response and compliance rate.
