Abstract
To identify studies to include or consider for this rapid scoping review, the review team worked with a librarian (SB) to develop detailed search strategies for each database. The PRISMA-S extension was followed for search reporting. The librarian (SB) developed the search for PubMed and translated the search for every database searched. The PubMed search strategy was reviewed by the research team to check for accuracy and term relevancy. All final searches were peer-reviewed by another librarian (Travis Nace, MLIS) following the Peer Review of Electronic Search Strategies (PRESS checklist). The search included no major limits or date restrictions.
Description
The databases included in this search are [list of databases: PubMed (NLM), Web of Science Core Collection (Clarivate), Cochrane Library (Wiley), CINAHL (Ebscohost), and APA PsycINFO (Ebscohost) using a combination of keywords and subject headings. A grey literature search included TRIP medical database(tripdatabase.com). All final searches were performed on June 03, 2025 by the librarian and were fully reported on June 03, 2025. The full search strategies as reported by the librarian are provided in Appendix (___). They are also archived at [DOI].
A summary of the search results:
PubMed (NLM) from 1809 to 06/03/2025 (876 Results)
Web of Science Core Collection (Clarivate Analytics) from 1900 to 06/03/2025 (595 Results)
Cochrane Library (Wiley) from inception to 06/03/2025 (240 results)
CINAHL (EbscoHost) from 1976 to 05/27/2025 (595 Results)
APA PsycINFO (Ebscohost)  from inception to 6/3/2025 (100 results)
TRIP Pro from 1867 to 05/27/2025 (682 results)
The search resulted in 3,088 results. 685 duplicate studies were found and omitted by the librarian [SB] using EndNote 20 and following the following the Wichor Bramer method. This resulted in 2,947 records to screen from databases and websites. 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.
