Leaguetable of network meta‐analysis for the outcome skeletal‐related event: surgery. Treatment options are ranked as indicated by the arrow from top: greater chance of being the best treatment (higher P‐scores) to bottom: lower chance of being the best treatment (lower P‐score). Network estimates with 95% confidence intervals indicating an effect between two of the treatment options are marked in yellow: treatment option in column better than treatment option in row. Global approach to check inconsistency/heterogeneity: Q‐statistics, I².
