Introduction to Systematic Reviews - Part 2 for Medicine and Health Systematic Reviews

Description:	This workshop introduces you to the remaining steps of conducting a systematic review after exporting the search results to your bibliographic management software e.g. EndNote, Zotero or to Covidence. Participants will also be introduced to the following steps of conducting a systematic review: Screen titles and abstracts; obtain full text of papers. Document the search process using a Flow Diagram. Extract and document data using a standardized form. Systematically assess the risk of bias, using appropriate risk of bias tools. Analyse and synthesise different types of research using quantitative synthesis (meta-analysis). Attendance at the Part 1 workshop is not a prerequisite for attendance at Part 2. This workshop is being led by academic Prof Nat Marshall from the Woolcock Institute who will introduce new material and provide expert guidance for completing a systematic review.
