“…The characteristics of the included studies are presented in S1Table. The earliest study was published in 1983 [22] and the five most current articles were published in 2015 [23], 2016 [24, 25, 26] and 2018 [27]. Nine studies took place in five countries: Japan [25, 28], Brazil [23], United Kingdom [24, 29], France [26, 30, 31] and India [27], but in 4 articles, the study countries were not reported [22, 32, 33, 34].…”
