FAQPage Schema
How do I automate a systematic literature review from start to finish?

You can automate a PRISMA 2020-compliant systematic literature review by providing a research topic to initiate a seven-phase workflow. It orchestrates screening, data extraction, and quality assessment to generate a manuscript and matrix.

What is PRISMA 2020 compliance and how does it apply to systematic reviews?

PRISMA 2020 compliance in systematic reviews standardizes the reporting of search strategies, screening logs, and quality assessments. This workflow integrates those reporting requirements to generate a compliant .docx manuscript.

Can I use this systematic review workflow for social science research?

Yes, this systematic review workflow is optimized for social science research but remains adaptable to any academic discipline. It structures the data extraction and narrative synthesis phases to match your specific field.

What outputs does a systematic review pipeline generate for data extraction?

A systematic review pipeline generates a PRISMA 2020-compliant .docx manuscript and a .xlsx data extraction matrix. These outputs capture structured methods, screening logs, and quality assessment results for your research.

Do I need to start from scratch if I already have references for my literature review?

No, you do not need to start from scratch if you have references for your literature review. The workflow auto-detects your entry point within the seven phases, allowing you to integrate existing references seamlessly.

What is the best way to structure a narrative synthesis for a systematic review?

The best way to structure a narrative synthesis for a systematic review is through guided workflow phases. This approach integrates quality assessment steps and data extraction matrices to produce a coherent, structured results section.
