To identify studies to include or consider for this systematic review, the review team worked with a 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 WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform search portal. The search was restricted to human clinical trials since 2000. The final search was completed on July 20, 2021. The full search details are provided.Description
To identify studies to include or consider for this systematic review, the review team worked with a 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 WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform search portal. The search was restricted to human clinical trials since 2000. The final search was completed on July 20, 2021. The full search details are provided. PubMed (NLM) from inception to 7/20/21 (2,807 Results) Embase (Elsevier) from inception to 7/20/21 (6,240 Results) Web of Science (Clarivate Analytics) from inception to 7/20/21 (711 Results) CINAHL (EBSCOHost) from inception to 7/20/21 (462 Results) Cochrane Central (Wiley) from inception to 7/20/21 (651 Results) Clinicaltrials.gov from inception to 7/20/21 (126 Results) WHO ICTRP from inception to 7/20/21 (38 Results) The search resulted in 11,035 studies (164 from grey literature sources). 2,488 duplicate studies were found and omitted using Endnote 20 for the deduplication of records and 8.547 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.Citation
