Abstract

 Over the past half century we have witnessed exponential growth of scientific research and its application in industry as well as daily life. Medicine is not an exception. The medical literature has grown dramatically with over 2 million articles published yearly in more than 20,000 journals. Keeping up with this is impossible for medical professionals, namely physicians. In addition to being unable to access all the relevant original articles published on a single topic, it has been shown that the main body of practicing and even academic and executive physicians, lack adequate method-ological knowledge and expertise to take care of the published research works, even if they have adequate access. Therefore, “review articles” have gained wide popularity among doctors. These “traditional reviews” are usually written by an expert in the field, either on a personal interest or more commonly on a contract by major journals. These “traditional reviews” provide useful information on general aspects of diseases or new progress. They usually have a general title, are extensively referenced, and reflect points of view of their author(s). The problem rises when you look at different major articles or major reviews on a single topic, which in many instances end up with different conclusions.1 What is the source of dispute, as these authors are expected to have looked at the same literature? Is there any difference in their resources? Have some of them missed some important publications? Are the authors biased towards their own research and points of view? Have they looked differently to the same research work? Are there research works not published in major English language journals, therefore not available to many who need it, i.e., is there some sort of publication bias? Can the statements in the review be generalized to other (especially our own) conditions? What can be done to minimize all these? So we know the following: 1) information is produced at a rapid rate, 2) summarizing the new information at a timely manner is essential to modern medical practice, 3) good reviews are necessary to update users (i.e., medical professionals), and 4) traditional reviews, despite their usefulness, suffer from several major and sometimes fatal drawbacks. “systematic reviews” have been born to respond to these needs.
