In contrast to the Cochrane review [ 12], we intended to meta-analyse the outcomes of all randomised controlled trials (RCTs) available.
When data were available for a pooled estimate of the impact of intervention it was intended that meta-analyses would be conducted for direct comparisons.
We intended to perform meta-analyses to assess mean differences between SIS and healthy control EMG activity.
We intended to undertake meta-analyses but the data were unsuitable due to the small number of studies and the disparate interventions and outcome measures.
In the protocol for this review, we intended to use meta-regression to explore heterogeneity and examine potential treatment effect modifiers.
Although we had intended to conduct meta-analyses, this was abandoned owing to the marked heterogeneity in participants, clinical settings, interventions, and the outcomes measured in the included studies.
In summary, the analyses presented in this article provide examples of the utility of a complex dataset that incorporates both OI and DDI data and were not intended as comprehensive meta-analyses.
Where feasible we intended to use meta-analysis on the results of cohort studies, but given the small number of included cohorts and differences in the durations between studies, the measures of body fatness, and the assessment methods of correlation between total fat intake and outcomes, meta-analysis was not appropriate.
We thank John Pickering for providing supplemental data for our intended meta-analysis, Johan Mårtensson and Alp Ikizler for declaring an intention of providing data before the meta-analysis was aborted, Stelios Kokkoris for providing data equivalent to data extracted from published articles, and Ville Pettilä for providing data from the currently unpublished study.
The catalyst was prepared by incorporating NiO nanoparticles into mesoporous macroporous Ba-based meta kaolin intended both as catalyst support as well as adsorbent.
The framework is intended to provide systematic meta-theoretical support for approaching complexity and wickedness in policy and design.
