SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires requests, pandoc, xelatex, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Systematic and comprehensive literature reviews are time-consuming and error-prone when conducted across multiple databases; this skill provides a rigorous, repeatable workflow with templates, citations verification, and professional deliverables.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-database integration (PubMed, bioRxiv, arXiv, Semantic Scholar) for discovery across domains.
  • Structured workflow support: search, deduplication, screening, data extraction, quality assessment, and thematic synthesis.
  • Automated citation verification and formatting with dedicated scripts; generates Markdown and PDF outputs from a reusable template.
  • Reproducible reporting: PRISMA-compatible documentation, templates, and artifacts for publication or grant reporting.

Quick Start

Run the literature review workflow by populating the assets/review_template.md and executing the search, screening, and synthesis steps with the included scripts.

FAQPage Schema
How do I conduct a reproducible systematic literature review across multiple databases?

To conduct a reproducible systematic literature review across multiple databases, you can populate a reusable Markdown template and execute dedicated scripts for search, screening, data extraction, and synthesis. This workflow generates PRISMA-compatible documentation and professional PDF reports.

Can I automate citation verification and PRISMA documentation for a systematic review?

Yes, you can automate citation verification and PRISMA documentation for a systematic review using included scripts. The workflow structures your search strategy, deduplication, and screening steps to produce rigorous, reproducible documentation suitable for publication or grant reporting.

What's the best way to search PubMed, arXiv, and bioRxiv for a comprehensive scientific literature review?

The best way to search PubMed, arXiv, and bioRxiv for a comprehensive scientific literature review is using a multi-database integration workflow. It structures discovery across biomedical, scientific, and technical domains, then applies automated deduplication and thematic synthesis.

Do I need pandoc and xelatex installed to generate PDF reports from my literature review?

Yes, you need pandoc and xelatex installed to generate PDF reports from your literature review. These dependencies render the Markdown synthesis outputs into professional PDF deliverables, ensuring your systematic review results are reproducible and properly formatted.

How does data extraction work for a systematic review with reproducible search strategies?

Data extraction for a systematic review with reproducible search strategies works by applying structured workflow steps after deduplication and screening. Dedicated scripts process the extracted data from multiple databases to perform quality assessment and thematic synthesis, outputting reusable Markdown artifacts.

What are the limitations of using automated scripts for systematic literature reviews?

The limitations of using automated scripts for systematic literature reviews include the necessity of specific technical dependencies like pandoc and xelatex for PDF generation. Users must also populate the initial review template and validate the automated citation verification to ensure domain-specific accuracy.
