| Evidence classification method： | Once the methodological quality and risk of bias assessments were performed, the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN) was used for the evaluation of the level of evidence of each study and the development of the grade of recommendation of each exercise intervention. This tool was designed for the development of evidence-based clinical guidelines and it has a series of advantages: the methodological quality of each study determines the level of evidence; guideline developers must consider the generalizability, applicability and consistency of each intervention; the clinical impact of the evidence creates a clear link between the evidence and the recommendation; and grades of recommendation are based on the strength of the supporting evidence, taking into account its overall level and the considered judgment of the guideline developers |
