The systematic review and network meta-analysis will be reported according to the Preferred Reporting items of Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses for Network Meta-Analyses (PRISMA-NMA) [17]. After title and abstract screening, 314 systematic reviews were eligible for full-text review, and 85 systematic reviews were included and reported on 442 distinct references to be eligible in the study selection process.
