Systematic Reviews
& Meta-Analyses
Thousands of new health research are published daily - a pace no one can keep up with. Systematic reviews play a crucial role in guiding evidence-based practice by summarizing vast amounts of research, which makes research findings easier to use for patient care, public health interventions, guidance, and policy.
Starting with a well-defined research question and a rigorous search process of all available evidence on a topic, available data and evidence are quantified, accessed for methodological rigor, and knowledge gaps identified.
Highest level of evidence for decision-making in healthcare, policy, and research.
