Bias	Authors' judgement	Support for judgement
Random sequence generation (selection bias)	Unclear risk	Not described
Allocation concealment (selection bias)	Unclear risk	The envelopes were described as sealed but it was unclear if they were opaque.
Blinding of participants and personnel (performance bias) All outcomes	Unclear risk	Not described
Blinding of outcome assessment (detection bias) All outcomes	Unclear risk	Not described
Incomplete outcome data (attrition bias) All outcomes	Unclear risk	It was unclear how many participants had incomplete outcome data
Selective reporting (reporting bias)	Unclear risk	The trial reports survival at 100 days but does not report complications in general terms
