What is a Systematic Review Dr. Nancy Agens, Head, research as it requires a careful analysis of the quality, quantity, and consistency of research findings. Systematic reviews formulate research questions that are specifically targeted and designed to provide a complete summary of the issue based on evidence. The methodology used in systematic reviews is specific and precise, which intends to minimize bias by increasing the reliability of the drawn conclusion. identifying comprehensive studies for a research specific question through summarizing the results, presenting key findings, identifying reasons for produced results across the study and mentioning limitations with current knowledge. A systematic review is the most reliable source of evidence for clinical practices as it delivers thorough summary of primary research in response to the defined research question and it is also known as secondary research because of the nature and use of existing research study. Though systematic review can be performed on all primary research, they are often used for guideline development, and the findings are applied mainly within the healthcare systems. In a systematic review, the compiled information tends to be explicit and more transparent using reproducible methods. Further, it expresses a precise aim through rigorous search with predetermined eligibility criteria for the findings, a systematic presentation and synthesis of the included primary research studies. The methodology used in systematic reviews is specific and precise, which intends to minimize bias by increasing the reliability of the drawn conclusion. The produced results of a systematic review can be summarized either in text or graphic form, and it depends upon the nature of the primary data. reporting standards designed for (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses), provides a set of regulations on how to report a systematic review. Likewise, for selecting a secondary research question, there are designated formats. A systematic review question typically focused research usually fitted into the PICO question format. One such example is "In people with multiple sclerosis, what is the extent to which a walking intervention, compared to no intervention, improves self-report fatigue?". Based on the specific guidelines, the primary two organization which administer the conducting of a systematic review are the Campbell Collaboration and the Cochrane Collaboration. While the Cochrane Collaboration focuses on the health sciences subject area, the Campbell collaboration works on other areas such as crime and justice, international In addition to these organizations, the individual research team can work on systematic review in attempting to answer a research question. II. WHAT MAKES AN EXCELLENT SYSTEMATIC REVIEW? A focused question Synthesize study results Analysis and limitations is a research method used to address a specific research question and formulating a well-constructed research question is essential for a successful review. Inclusion/exclusion criteria – It studies reason. For instance, the most reliable method for conducting a review through randomized studies whereas for including or excluding studies, the author needs a logical reason. explain the methods used for finding relevant studies which include published and unpublished clinical trial reports, online database search, as well as approaching experts in finding study criteria and collect relevant data for conducting a systematic review. identifying the risk of bias in secondary research on the included data, the author must determine the effectiveness of an intervention using meta-analysis. Whereas can provide a narrative analysis by describing the initial results. should discuss the addressed area of study, the findings, and how the review results change the existing limitations. Different types of reviews: addressing questions of effectiveness, diagnostic accuracy, and prognosis. Literature Review Key section Systematic review Literature review Question Mainly focused on one question question protocol or plan Background Both the review presents the summaries of the available literature on a topic Objectives Study-specific objectives are identified is conducted Not mandatorily specified Search strategy A systematic search will be The search strategy will not conducted Process of evaluating used in formulating a single question will be provided based on evidence may not be specified. Discussion An expert or group of professionals write them with a well- grounded knowledge of the issues.

Predetermined reproducible abstracts will be followed. Each study will then be assessed in terms of methodological quality, and finally, the evidence is synthesized. 1', Nursing Standard (through 2013), vol. 24, no. 50, pp. 47-55 Issue 3 - p 53-58.
