SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the complex and time-consuming process of conducting PRISMA-standard systematic reviews, ensuring rigor and replicability in evidence synthesis.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Protocol Development: Assists in defining review parameters using the PICOTS framework and developing comprehensive search strategies.
  • PRISMA Execution: Guides users through the identification, screening, eligibility, and inclusion phases, including duplicate removal.
  • Risk of Bias Assessment: Supports the evaluation of study quality using established tools like Cochrane RoB 2.0.
  • Use Case: A researcher needs to conduct a systematic review on the efficacy of a new drug. This Skill will help them define their PICO, build search strings for multiple databases, track study inclusion, and assess the risk of bias for each study.

Quick Start

Use the systematic-review skill to help me develop a protocol for a review on the impact of exercise on sleep quality.

FAQPage Schema
How do I conduct a PRISMA systematic review from start to finish?

To conduct a PRISMA systematic review, this Skill guides you through protocol development using PICOTS, building search strings, screening studies for eligibility, removing duplicates, and performing risk of bias assessment.

What is the PICOTS framework and how is it used in evidence synthesis?

The PICOTS framework defines review parameters for evidence synthesis by structuring your research question into Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcomes, Timing, and Study Design elements to ensure rigorous protocol development.

Can I use Cochrane RoB 2.0 for risk of bias assessment in my systematic review?

Yes, you can use Cochrane RoB 2.0 for risk of bias assessment. This Skill supports evaluating study quality using established tools like Cochrane RoB 2.0 and JBI standards during your systematic review.

How do I build search strings for multiple databases during protocol development?

During protocol development, this Skill assists in building comprehensive search strategies tailored for multiple databases, ensuring thorough literature identification for your PRISMA-standard systematic review.

Does this systematic review tool support literature screening and duplicate removal?

Yes, this tool supports literature screening and duplicate removal. It actively guides users through the PRISMA phases of identification, screening, eligibility, and inclusion to ensure rigorous evidence synthesis.

What are the limitations of using automated tools for PRISMA compliance?

While this Skill facilitates PRISMA-standard systematic reviews by handling literature review and data handling via web search, it requires active user oversight to ensure methodological rigor and accurate evidence synthesis.
