TABLE 2.
League table for WC; results of the network meta-analysis are presented in the left lower half and results from pairwise meta-analysis in the upper right half. In the left lower and upper right half, mean differences lower than 0 favor the column-defining treatment, and bold font indicates significant results. NA: not available.
