  • A cross-retrieval will be conducted to screen the literature that met the inclusion criteria.

Literature screening and data extraction

  • The literature search will be independently performed by two researchers.
  • Identified studies will be imported into EndNote×9 and Mendeley for organization.
  • Articles will be evaluated based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria.
  • Duplicates from various databases will be removed.
  • Clearly irrelevant articles will be excluded based on their titles and abstracts.
  • Full texts of the remaining studies will be thoroughly reviewed, and those that met the criteria will be included.
  • The final dataset will be cross-verified.
  • Discrepancies will be resolved through discussion or by involving a third researcher with a PhD for arbitration.
