Critical appraisal
This document discusses how to critically appraise research studies. It is important to critically appraise research to determine how valid and useful the results are, as research quality can vary. When appraising a study, one should examine aspects like methodology, potential for publication bias, clarity of results presentation, and statistical significance of findings. Tools like CASP questionnaires can help guide the critical appraisal process by evaluating a study's validity, results, and relevance.
Literaure searching for systematic reviews
To avoid bias, systematic reviews must comprehensively search for all relevant published and unpublished research. An effective search strategy considers all possible terms, searches various databases and other resources, and documents the process. The search aims to be highly sensitive to find all relevant studies while being specific enough to exclude irrelevant ones later. Guidance from Cochrane and CRD can help with developing search strategies and conducting thorough systematic reviews.
