A systematic review is a type of literature review guided by a protocol, focusing on a specific research question. It collects all relevant studies related to the topic, transparently and objectively extracting and analysing their data. It aims to provide a clear and unbiased understanding of what is known about that topic based on existing research.

Conducting a systematic review is essential to understand what is known about a specific topic from existing research. It helps gather all the information, evaluate it, and draw meaningful conclusions. By following the protocol, researchers can create a trustworthy picture of the subject. This process supports decision making in various fields and ensures that conclusions are based on solid evidence, which is why it is important that the whole process is conducted with high attention to detail.

Below guidelines will help you get familiar with the entire process.
