Notes | University/hospital‐based | |
Risk of bias | ||
Bias | Authors' judgement | Support for judgement |
Random sequence generation (selection bias) | Low risk | Coin toss |
Allocation concealment (selection bias) | Unclear risk | Method not reported |
Blinding of participants and personnel (performance bias) All outcomes | High risk | Patients remained unblinded to the root coverage procedure |
Blinding of outcome assessment (detection bias) All outcomes | High risk | All measurements were performed by 1 examiner aware of the type of surgical procedure |
Incomplete outcome data (attrition bias) All outcomes | Low risk | All patients completed the follow‐up period |
Selective reporting (reporting bias) | Low risk | Evidence of selective reporting of outcomes was not detected |
Other bias | Low risk | Evidence of other bias was not detected |
