Figure 2 Graph showing the included randomized controlled trials' risk of bias. The proportion of the total number of randomized controlled trials is represented on the horizontal axis, while the vertical axis displays the bias risk elements. The "unclear danger of bias" should be viewed as "low risk of bias" for the outcome whose evaluation procedure is objective.
