SUMMARY:🏆 Dipping Your Toes into Evidence Synthesis: Understanding Review Types\, Crafting Research Questions\, and Basics of Comprehensive Searching
DESCRIPTION:This introductory session is designed to guide participants 
 through the foundational elements of evidence synthesis\, focusing on the 
 essential skills for crafting research questions\, understanding review 
 types\, and building comprehensive search strategies. By the end of the 
 class\, participants will be able to:\n\n\n	Understand Different Review 
 Types: Learn about various types of reviews\, such as systematic reviews\, 
 scoping reviews\, and narrative reviews\, and determine which is most 
 suitable for their research question.\n	Craft Effective Research Questions: 
 Utilize frameworks like PICO (Patient\, Intervention\, Comparison\, 
 Outcome) to formulate clear\, focused research questions that guide the 
 evidence synthesis process.\n	Develop a Concept Table: Map out key concepts 
 and terms for each component of the research question to inform the search 
 strategy.\n	Navigate Comprehensive Searching: Gain an understanding of how 
 to build effective search strategies using both natural language and 
 controlled vocabulary (e.g.\, MeSH\, Emtree). Learn to select appropriate 
 databases like PubMed\, Ovid Embase\, and TRIP\, and refine search 
 strategies to minimize bias and ensure comprehensive coverage.\n	Document 
 Search Strategies: Understand the importance of tracking search strategies 
 and results to maintain transparency and reproducibility\, including the 
 use of search logs and citation management tools like EndNote.\n\n\nThis 
 class is ideal for anyone new to evidence synthesis\, including 
 researchers\, students\, and clinicians who are looking to strengthen their 
 ability to conduct systematic reviews or other types of evidence synthesis. 
 Whether you're beginning a review or refining your skills\, this session 
 will provide the necessary tools to help you get started with 
 evidence-based research.\n\nFormat:\nLecture-style presentation with 
 opportunities for discussion and Q&A.
