Does the introduction explain the objective of the research presented in the preprint?

Yes

It outlined the objective of the research clearly.

Are the methods well-suited for this research?

Somewhat appropriate

The method is somewhat appropriate because there is need for more clarity on the studies used for exclusion/inclusion criteria. There's need to review the duration of search (2004 to 2024) and the duration reported (2014 to 2024) in inclusion/exclusion criteria. More, the strategy for analyzing publication bias seem insufficient. For instance, consider Egger's test and Funnel plot. Also, there's need to clarify the risk of bias checklist used against the inclusion criteria.
