A review of a clearly formulated question that uses systematic and explicit methods to identify, select, and critically appraise relevant research, and to collect and analyse data from the studies
that are included in the review.

Systematic reviews of interventions require a thorough, objective and reproducible search of a
range of sources to identify as many relevant studies as possible (within resource limits).

rheumatoid arthritis patients treated with biologics?
Very Narrow:• What is the rate of Caplan Syndrome for asbestos

1. Break your question into concepts2. Identify subject headings for each concept3. Identify text words for each concept
• Tips: – Use a “target article” to help identify search terms– Use a worksheet to keep track of your terms

• Start with your first concept– Search for the subject headings first– Then search text words– Combine these synonymous searches with OR
using your search history
• Repeat for your second, third, and subsequent concepts
• Finally, combine large search results set with AND
