Note. Change for intervention and control groups as a function of number of recommendations. CI = confidence interval. d = fixed-effects weighted means. QB = homogeneity coefficient for the difference across levels of a factor, distributed as a chi-square with degrees of freedom equal to the number of factor levels − 1. Within each row, ds with similar subscripts are not significantly different from one another.
