This problem is addressed in PRISMA 2009, PRISMA 2020, ROBIS and MECIR. Ensuring that systematic reviews address meaningful questions to help decision making is key to ensuring their validity. Involving stakeholders in question setting, scoping the initial research question, looking for other similar questions and pre-registering methods are all ways of ensuring that the systematic review answers an important question.
