The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement) was published in 2009 to provide a framework for reporting systematic reviews. This was updated in 2020 to reflect changes in systematir review methods and terminology.
As a result the PRISMA flow diagram has been changed and requires aadditional information as well as a slightly altered layout,
Library staff will be leading a training session on using the new PRISMA on Tuesday 14th June at 2pm. You can book into the session on Eventbrite, and a link to join will be sent to you. This will be relevant for anyone using a PRISMA flow diagram to report a literature search.
The library has a guide on systematic reviews anyone working in this particular area which outlines searching methodology and working with results.
