TABLE 1
Table 1 lists the study characteristics of the 37 articles selected for
meta-analysis with their author information, date of publication,
country of origin, study design, number of pediatric patients and JBI
scaled score. As shown in the table, these studies were published
between March and July 2020. Majority (84%) of the studies were from
China, whereas the rest originated from Turkey, France, UK, and
Switzerland. Case series comprised of more than half (60%) of the study
design and the remaining half were cross-sectional. Half of the articles
had sample size of 2-10 patients and about 15% had a sample size of
over 40 subjects. The mean JBI scaled score is 8 (0.88 SD) out of 10.
Approximately 90% of the selected articles yielded a JBI scaled score
of ≥7, affirming good quality of the selected articles.
