Screen records for a PRISMA systematic review

Practice the sequence you already learned for “Screen records for a PRISMA systematic review” until the order feels automatic. Drill PRISMA order from evidence-synthesis training. Full-text inclusion is not decided until duplicates are removed and title/abstract screening is complete with two reviewers.

1. Run the registered searches.
2. Export the records.
3. Deduplicate before anyone screens.
4. Screen titles and abstracts with two independent reviewers.
5. Resolve conflicts.
6. Screen full text against the protocol.
7. Fill the PRISMA flow with the exclusion reasons.
8. Do not add a favorite paper that failed the criteria.
