§To be able to pool the adjusted odds ratios in a meta-analysis, the hazard ratio reported in the study by Aso et al. 2017 [22] was converted to an odds ratio. For the procedure, we assumed that the hazard ratio is a type of relative risk and, thus, is asymptotically similar to a relative risk. Then, using the inverse probability weighted binomial model we transformed the adjusted hazard ratio of mortality reported in the study by Aso to an odd ratio. Following this approach, we obtained an adjusted odds ratio of mortality (Aso: OR 0.821; 95% CI 0.306–1.234)
*Data were reported only for pairs
°Mortality was estimated via linear regression analysis, and time variables were estimated via bootstrapping
