In Reply We appreciate the letter from Taskin and colleagues regarding our study.1 We take this opportunity to respond to their comments and provide clarification regarding the study’s methodology.
First, we thank Taskin and colleagues for sharing the search terms they used. We believe that the reason why there is a discrepancy in the number of articles retrieved is because additional terms, namely, AIDS and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, were used in their search. The use of these terms did not identify additional studies that would have been included in our study.
