PRISMA
PRISMA, which stands for Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses, is a set of guidelines designed to improve the transparency and quality of systematic reviews and meta-analyses. It provides a framework for researchers to follow when reporting their findings, ensuring that essential information is included and clearly presented. This helps readers assess the reliability and validity of the research.
The PRISMA statement includes a checklist of 27 items that cover various aspects of the review process, such as the rationale, methods, results, and conclusions. By adhering to these guidelines, researchers can enhance the reproducibility of their work and facilitate better understanding among the scientific community and the public.
