*Only characteristics identified in at least four interventions within each cluster are reported for that cluster.
†‘Index of potential’ refers to the percentage of studies, of all those featuring the focal intervention characteristic, found to show evidence of potential effectiveness on at least one variable within the relevant outcome cluster. Rows in bold denote components found to show promise (index of potential >50%).
