Notes | Trial conducted: September 2014‐October 2014 | |
Risk of bias | ||
Bias | Authors' judgement | Support for judgement |
Were the mosquitoes in LLIN and LLIN + PBO groups comparable | Low risk | Huts situated in the same area – mosquito characteristics will be the same |
Collectors blinded | Unclear risk | Unclear if collectors blinded – not stated in publication |
Sleepers blinded | Unclear risk | Unclear if sleeper blinded – not stated in publication |
Sleeper bias | Low risk | Sleepers were rotated between huts using a Latin square design. |
Treatment allocation (was the treatment allocation sequence randomly/adequately generated | Low risk | Treatments were not randomized to huts, but instead were rotated fully between all of the huts using a Latin square design. |
Treatment rotation | Low risk | Treatments were rotated between huts using a Latin square design. |
Standardized hut design | Low risk | Huts were built in a standard West‐African design. |
Hut cleaning between treatments | Unclear risk | Unclear if huts were cleaned between treatments – not stated in the publication |
Were incomplete outcome data adequately addressed | Low risk | There were no incomplete data. |
Were the raw data reported for LLIN and LLIN + PBO groups | Low risk | All necessary data were reported. |
Trial authors' conflicting interest | Low risk | The trial authors have no competing interests. |
