Summary of Findings | Of the 33 qualitative systematic reviews in the JBI Database of Systematic Reviews and Implementation Reports (JBISRIR) between 2015 to 2017, several areas were identified where reviewers consistently made errors or did not clearly report their findings, including study screening and selection issues (particularly how this was done and by whom), transparent rationale for study exclusion, who performed data extraction and how, processes for developing synthesized findings, and the development and presentation of recommendations. |
