Ever wondered what to do with the >80k citations of the PRISMA standards for #SystematicReviews and #MetaAnalysis?

I did a bibliometric analysis of authors who use PRISMA. Join my presentation next week:

CWTS MastodonCWTS | Leiden University (@cwts@social.cwts.nl)🦠 Does science rely on early career researchers for applying reporting standards and running more technical analyses? In our next seminar, @Aschniedermann@fediscience.org, external PhD candidate at CWTS and researcher at the German Centre for Higher Education Research and Science Studies (DZHW) will present results of a bibliometric analysis of biomedical research. 🎧 Make sure to join! 📅 Friday, 11.04.2025 | 3:00-4:15 PM (CEST) 📌 Online Check our website for more information 👉 https://www.universiteitleiden.nl/en/events/2025/04/keeping-up-with-its-own-standards-does-science-need-constant-rejuvenation

Remember Ludwig Fleck's socio-intellectual forms of science? In 1935, he described the novelty of findings along different document types that can be found in science. Today, many links between document types and intellectual functions can be identified. Think of #Preprints, #SystematicReviews #MetaAnalysis #Guidelines #Handbooks #SoftwarePaper #DataPaper etc.
(I put a little typology here: arxiv.org/abs/2406.15154)

arXiv.orgAnalysis of the Publication and Document Types in OpenAlex, Web of Science, Scopus, Pubmed and Semantic ScholarThis study compares and analyses publication and document types in the following bibliographic databases: OpenAlex, Scopus, Web of Science, Semantic Scholar and PubMed. The results demonstrate that typologies can differ considerably between individual database providers. Moreover, the distinction between research and non-research texts, which is required to identify relevant documents for bibliometric analysis, can vary depending on the data source because publications are classified differently in the respective databases. The focus of this study, in addition to the cross-database comparison, is primarily on the coverage and analysis of the publication and document types contained in OpenAlex, as OpenAlex is becoming increasingly important as a free alternative to established proprietary providers for bibliometric analyses at libraries and universities.

Researchers planning to do #SystematicReviews must now plan to filter out the #JunkScience. That's difficult, time-consuming, error-prone, and demoralizing. It causes some researchers to drop their plans and forces others to move more slowly.

#PrismaCosmin 2024

A #ReportingGuideline for reporting #SysReviews of outcome measurement instruments:
link.springer.com/article/10.1

It aims to improve the reporting of #SystematicReviews of OMIs, fostering their reproducibility and allowing end-users to appraise the quality of OMIs.

It consists of two checklists, their corresponding explanation and elaboration documents detailing the rationale and examples for each item, and a data flow diagram.

Guideline for reporting systematic reviews of outcome measurement instruments (OMIs): PRISMA-COSMIN for OMIs 2024 Ellen B. M. Elsman, Lidwine B. Mokkink, Caroline B. Terwee, Dorcas Beaton, Joel J.

Krause, Sarah Markham, Evan Mayo-Wilson, Ava Mehdipour, Juanna Ricketts, Peter Szatmari, Zahi Touma, David Moher & Martin Offringa Abstract Purpose Although comprehensive and widespread guidelines on how to conduct systematic reviews of outcome measurement instruments (OMIs) exist, for example from the COSMIN (COnsensus-based Standards for the selection of health Measurement INstruments) initiative, key information is often missing in published reports. This article describes the development of an extension of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 guideline: PRISMA-COSMIN for OMIs 2024.

Dear @OpenAlex people and other #SysRev enthusiastics:

I'm in the process of planning a number of #SystematicReviews. It would be great if we'd be able to use #OpenAlex instead of paywalled #bibliographic databases and interfaces.

There are 2 challenges.

1️⃣ OpenAlex is huge (which is great). The Subjects can help here I guess, but open to other suggestions!

2️⃣ In OpenAlex Web, I can't figure out how to search in Titles Only. When adding a filter, 'title' isn't available...

What am I missing?

"But Kate," you say, "40 is a small number of users, when you think of all the handling editors looking for reviewers who can evaluate the reporting and quality of evidence synthesis searches."

Yes! Yes it is! You'd better tell other editors that this list of willing reviewers is available at sites.google.com/view/mlprdata

New post: A view from the Sicily Evidence-Based Healthcare Conference

absolutelymaybe.plos.org/2023/

Last week was the 10th international gathering of EBHC teachers & developers in Sicily. I reflect on some of the major themes - "living" systematic reviews & guidelines, pandemic divisions, & equity in EBHC.

Absolutely Maybe · A View From the Sicily Evidence-Based Healthcare Conference - Absolutely MaybeIt’s a stunning place. And this conference makes the best of it, held in a hotel overlooking its own Mediterranean beach. The…
