What a Systematic Review Is

Captions available

The idea

A systematic review compiles studies addressing a specific question, attempting to collate and synthesise all the empirical evidence on the topic.

In practice

A review setting out to find everything known about one question.

Where people slip

"All the evidence" is the intention. Whether the review achieved it is what appraisal asks.
