Information used to determine analytic sample sizes and to assess equivalence of the intervention and comparison groups is based on correspondence with the author. Findings from analyses that test the effect of different dosages of the intervention on participant outcomes were ineligible for review.
Randomization was compromised in this study because when authors conducted impact analyses, they excluded from the Infant Mental Health–Home Visiting intervention group the study participants who did not receive at least one home visit and instead included those participants in the comparison group.
