Literature searches underlie the foundations of systematic reviews and related review types. Yet, literature searching component types is often poorly reported. Guidance for search reporting has been diverse, and, in many cases, does not offer enough detail to authors who need more specific information about methods sources a clear, reproducible way. This document presents PRISMA-S (Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Meta-Analyses extension) checklist, explanation elaboration.
A validated geographic search filter for the retrieval of research about United Kingdom (UK) from bibliographic databases had not previously been published.To develop and validate a to retrieve UK OVID medline with high recall precision.Three gold standard sets references were generated using relative method. The contained studies which informed National Institute Health Care Excellence (NICE) guidance. first second used refine filter. third set was Recall, precision number-needed-to-read...
Aim To examine how effectively forwards citation searching with Web of Science (WOS) or Google Scholar (GS) identified evidence to support public health guidance published by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence. Method Forwards was performed using GS on a base set 46 publications replicated WOS. Outcomes WOS were compared in terms recall; precision; number needed read (NNR); administrative time costs; screening costs. all those subset highly important publications. Results...
The authors developed a validated geographic search filter to retrieve research about the United Kingdom (UK) from OVID Embase. It was created be used alongside their previously published MEDLINE UK in systematic literature searches for context-sensitive topics.To develop Embase.The Embase translated filter. A gold standard set of references generated using relative recall method. contained publications that had informed National Institute Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidance it...
Abstract
 
 Objective – To make recommendations for the National Institute Health and Care Excellence (NICE) on factors to consider when choosing databases search techniques producing systematic reviews support public health guidance development.
 Methods Retrospective analysis of how publications included in commissioned by NICE obesity, spatial planning, tuberculosis were retrieved. The checked see if they found from searching MEDLINE, another database or through other...
Introduction The United Kingdom's (UK) National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) needs access to evidence on COVID-19 develop rapid guidelines healthcare professionals. This paper reports how the NICE search strategy identifying references in Ovid MEDLINE Embase has been developed maintained. Methods Each free-text line from June 2020 version of was categorised as Critical, High, Medium, Low or Zero priority, according number results their relevance NICE. Five options were...
Background The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence's (NICE) United Kingdom (UK) geographic search filters MEDLINE Embase (OVID) retrieve evidence in literature searches UK‐focused research topics with high recall. Their precision number‐needed‐to‐read (NNR) was examined previously case studies using a single review. This paper details larger post‐development study that conducted to test the NICE UK filters' NNR more extensively. Methods recall of included references from 100...
There are no existing validated search filters for the group of 37 Organisation Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries. This study describes how information specialists from United Kingdom's National Institute Health Care Excellence (NICE) developed evaluated novel OECD countries' geographic MEDLINE Embase (Ovid) to improve literature effectiveness evidence about countries.We created draft using an alternative approach standard filter construction. They composed entirely...
This paper discusses the value of open and transparent methods for recording systematic database search strategies, showing how they have been applied at National Institute Health Clinical Excellence (NICE) in United Kingdom (UK).
 
 Objective – The objectives are to: 1) Discuss strategy methods. 2) Assess any limitations to practical application a checklist approach. 3) Make recommendations searches.

Systematic searches are integral to identifying the evidence that is used in National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) public health guidelines (PHGs). This study analyses sources, including bibliographic databases other techniques, required PHGs. The aims were analyse sources identify publications included NICE PHGs; assess whether fewer could have been searched retrieve these publications. Data showing how had identified was collated using search summary tables. Three...
We previously developed draft MEDLINE and Embase (Ovid) geographic search filters for Organisation Economic Co-operation Development (OECD) countries to assess their feasibility finding evidence about the countries. Here, we describe validation of these filters.We identified OECD country references from thirty National Institute Health Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines generate gold standard sets (n=2,065) (n=2,023). validated by calculating recall against sets. then applied existing...

In this paper we report how the United Kingdom's National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) search filters treating managing COVID-19 were validated use in MEDLINE (Ovid) Embase (Ovid). The objective was to achieve at least 98.9% recall 64% precision.

Quality assurance (QA) is an important process in ensuring that systematic reviews and other evidence syntheses are supported by a high-quality search. This paper describes how the National Institute for Health Care Excellence (NICE) UK established development pathway to ensure its information specialists had skills, knowledge confidence undertake search QA. The key component of it blends technical with interpersonal skills. develops skills early steps before using peer support activities...
Small databases, such as Health Management Information Consortium (HMIC) and Social Policy Practice (SPP), can add value to systematic searches. Search strategies designed for large databases may not be appropriate in small sources. A different approach translating could ensure that are searched efficiently.To establish the contribution HMIC SPP made public health guidelines (PHGs); recommend an efficient method of search strategies.Eight PHGs were analysed how many included publications...
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) produces public health guidelines. Information specialists collaborate with technical analysts to perform systematic searches evidence reviews (ERs). Public ERs require from multiple disciplines across a range of sources leading high volumes results. purpose the project was provide support choice new topics. It aimed retrospectively analyse sample NICE by examining which retrieved publications. Medical databases found highest...
