Abstract
To identify studies to include or consider for this systematic review, the review team worked with a medical librarian to develop detailed search strategies for each database. The search was developed for PubMed (NLM) and was translated to Embase (Elsevier), Web of Science (Clarivate Analytics), CINAHL (EBSCOHost) and Cochrane Central (Wiley) using a combination of keywords and subject headings. A grey literature search included ClinicalTrials.gov and the TRIP database. The search included no major limits or date restrictions. The final search was completed on April 27, 2021.
Description
To identify studies to include or consider for this systematic review, the review team worked with a medical librarian to develop detailed search strategies for each database. The search was developed for PubMed (NLM) and was translated to Embase (Elsevier), Web of Science (Clarivate Analytics), CINAHL (EBSCOHost) and Cochrane Central (Wiley) using a combination of keywords and subject headings. A grey literature search included ClinicalTrials.gov and the TRIP database. The search included no major limits or date restrictions. The final search was completed on April 27, 2021. The full search details are provided in Appendix(___). PubMed (NLM) from inception to 4/27/21 (4,914 Results) Embase (Elsevier) from inception to 4/27/21 (3,499 Results) Web of Science (Clarivate Analytics) from inception to 4/27/21 (107 Results) CINAHL (EBSCOHost) from inception to 4/27/21 (1,675 Results) Cochrane Central (Wiley) from inception to 4/27/21 (7 Results) The search resulted in 10,280 studies (78 from grey literature sources). 986 duplicate studies were found and omitted using Endnote X.7 for the deduplication of records and 9,294 references were eligible to screen. Studies were screened by title and abstract by two blinded and independent reviewers. If a tiebreaker was needed, a third reviewer was called in. This process was repeated for full text article screening and article selection.
