Search methods: MEDLINE via PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, Cochrane Central, Ichushi-Web, and WHO ICTRP will be used, along with hand searching.
Screening and data extraction: Two researchers will independently conduct this using Rayyan. Disagreements will be resolved through discussion or by a third reviewer.
Risk of bias assessment: Two reviewers will independently assess this using the JBI critical appraisal tools.
Data synthesis and analysis: Extracted data will be compiled into a classification table. If meta-analysis is feasible, statistical heterogeneity (I2 statistic) and reporting bias (funnel plot, Egger's test) will be evaluated, and sensitivity analyses will be conducted.
