There's this called Google where you can search for shit so that you understand it better.
One of the things you might do when embarking on a #systematicreview is, well, first, consult with a librarian, but also try to understand some resources.

#Breastfeeding is encouraged because of known health benefits, but it is not easy and many parents experience challenges.
Due to differences in how Autistic people experience pain and bodily sensations, we thought that they may find breastfeeding harder. (2/11)

Here's a #SearchAndRescue tip of the day!
Are you putting together a #SystematicReview search?
If you use a subject heading (aka controlled vocabulary, thesaurus term), use the same term as a keyword too.
It seems redundant, but it's not. Let's look at an example:

Dear #rstats & #systematicreview Twitter friends: I've been working hard on the {metabefor} R package these past weeks. I'll explain a bit more in the thread, but first, my question.

This is the current version of the logo.

What does this logo evoke?
... And to say a bit more about the package: it's meant to assist with the extraction of data from articles. Not by automating anything, mind you - but by providing a uniform, solid structure to the process and making it transparent, extensible, and machine-readable.
Why is it that I spent some three hours over the weekend scrutinizing a #systematicreview in minute detail? I hadn't expected needing to explain my motives but someone forced my hand so here goes. This will be a shorter thread. 1/10
When someone asked Sir Edmund Hillary why he wants to climb Everest, he responded: “Because it’s there”. Similarly, I examine these reviews because I know I can do it well and because I don’t see anyone else doing it out in the open. 2/10

@stella_talic @bmj_latest I’m using AMSTAR-2 to conduct this assessment. Also, where relevant, I will drop in additional observations based on my 15-year experience working as a Managing Editor in @cochranecollab producing, editing and publishing #systematicreviews. 2/

The title nicely lists three outcomes: Covid-19 (getting the disease), SARS-CoV-2 transmission (contracting the virus or passing it on to others) and dying as a result of Covid-19. 3/

2) We found that RT elicits reductions of ~1.4% body fat percentage and 0.55kg body fat mass compared with non-exercise control. Importantly, this is in studies NOT designed for weight loss! We excluded studies with concurrent dietary and aerobic exercise interventions.
3) RT also elicited moderate reductions in visceral fat compared with non-exercise control. This adds more evidence to the broad spectrum of benefit for RT on indices of health.

Our #systematicreview and #metaanalysis on the association of #sepsis with long-term #CVD is out now in @yourICM ! Surviving sepsis was associated with ⬆️#cvMI, #heartfailure, and #stroke over 5+ years. Take-home points below. tinyurl.com/p5n634jy
1. Many studies have examined the risk of #CVD after #sepsis, but variable population and outcome selection has complicated generalizability. We estimated the risk of #cvMI, #heartfailure, #stroke, and composite #CVD after sepsis relative to hospital and population controls.
2. 12,649 citations identified, 27 (25 cohort, 2 case-crossover) studies included. Median of 4,289 (IQR 502–68,125) sepsis survivors and 18,399 (IQR 4,028–83,506) controls per study. We assessed cumulative incidence and relative risk of #CVD from 30 days to longest follow-up.

Systematic reviews aim to maximise rigour and minimise susceptibility to bias using rigorous methods.
But despite these methods being available, poor reviews are still published: these could be improved with a few key processes; some not prohibitively costly. (3/23)
