Numbers are based on the overall disconcordance, numbers of studies, participants and decisions for the disconcordance of the active, shared or passive role might deviate from the numbers for the overall disconcordance, due to the incompleteness of the reported data in the individual studies.

b

For subgroups that include 1 or 2 studies, the individual percentage(s) is presented.
