24 July 2018 New citation required and conclusions have changed We included 13 eligible studies that enrolled 2426 participants and compared 21 interventions. Using random‐effects models we determined pooled risk ratio (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for dichotomous outcomes and mean differences (MD) and 95% CI for continuous outcomes. We performed a network meta‐analysis using multivariate meta‐regression. We modelled treatment differences (RR and 95% CI) and determined treatment rankings for two‐week and 10‐week mortality outcomes using surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA). We assessed the certainty of the evidence using the GRADE approach.
