Having discussed this article with the WikiJSci editorial board, on this occasion we must decline the submission. Below are notes on the reasoning and recommendations for future improvements:
- Funnel and forest plots based on <10 studies are presented and interpreted (see Cochrane recommendations on minimum dataset sizes). The analyses therefore do not meet the assumptions of the test.
- A PRISMA outline of search strategy for the formal meta-analyses is missing.
- A copyrighted map from Google maps is included.
The first two points significantly affect the analysis and conclusions drawn. We hope that this feedback assists you in re-writing the manuscript.
