\(SMD = \left( {\overline{{X_{T} }} - \overline{{X_{C} }} } \right)/\sqrt {S_{T}^{2} \left( {n_{T} - 1} \right) + S_{C}^{2} \left( {n_{C} - 1} \right)/\left( {n_{T} + n_{C} - 2} \right)}\), where \(\overline{{X_{T} }}\) and \(\overline{{X_{C} }}\) indicate the means of each variable in the treatment and control groups, respectively, additionally, \(S_{T}^{2}\) and \(S_{C}^{2}\) represent the variances of each variable in the treatment and control groups, respectively, while \(n_{T}\) and \(n_{C}\) highlight the sample size in the treatment and control groups, respectively
