 Hi, my name is Alex, I'm a librarian at the University of Alabama, and in this video I'm going to show you how to find systematic reviews. If you're working on a systematic review, you should do a thorough search for published systematic reviews on your topic. The rationale is simple. You don't want to waste time working on a systematic review that's already been done, assuming it's been done recently and done well. You'll probably also want to search for registered systematic review protocols and repositories like Prospero. This will help you find in-process systematic reviews as well as completed ones. You can find published systematic reviews on almost any academic database. Sometimes it's as easy as adding the search term systematic review to your search. In this video, however, we'll focus on searching for systematic reviews in three databases, PubMed, the Cochrane Library, and the Joanna Briggs Institute. All are good for finding systematic reviews in the fields of medicine, health, and nutrition. On PubMed, you can run a search and then use the search filters on the left-hand side of the screen. You might choose systematic review and or meta-analysis. This will filter out other article types. You could use those search filters with a keyword search or a search employing PubMed's mesh terminology. Just to be thorough, you could also uncheck those filters and simply add systematic review to your search. The Cochrane Collection Plus includes access to the Cochrane Database of systematic reviews. Since this database is just for systematic reviews, it simplifies the search process. You have a basic search and an advanced search. You can also search for systematic review protocols as well. Finally, there's the Joanna Briggs Institute or JBI. They have multiple search options as well, and it's pretty similar to PubMed. You just run a keyword search and then find the publication type search filter on the left. JBI also allows you to search for systematic reviews and systematic review protocols. In addition to this video, we also have another tutorial showing how to find systematic reviews on Scout. We'll include a link to that below. And that's all for this video. Hopefully you now have a better understanding of how to find published and in progress systematic reviews. And remember, if you have any questions, just ask a librarian.
