It’s been two years since I started working on my Reproducible Systematic Subset query for #PubMed to power my knowledge synthesis appraisals at zheln.com, and look what I have found so far ⬇ 1/8
First and foremost, your regular PubMed searches you see when reading through evidence syntheses are fundamentally irreproducible – in part, at best. This is because they usually do not account for indexing dates – the issue I fixed in the RSSB 2/8
RSSB, being short for Reproducible Systematic Subset, is the same as PubMed’s regular Syst Rev filter (with both the older and newer versions combined) but tweaked for reproducibility: osf.io/z3ju7/ I.e., it gives you the same record set whenever you rerun the query 3/8
