2 At the end of a systematic review, a meta- analysis is always done to synthesize results. A.True B.False Studies Supporting Conclusions

3 When creating an evidence table, the reviewer combines information across multiple studies. A.True B.False Evidence Table

4 Summary tables include general information but no results about studies. A.True B.False Summary Table

5 An evidence map provides a graphical representation of a meta-analysis. A.True B.False Evidence Map

6  Data in systematic reviews are synthesized using tables (nonquantitative synthesis) instead of, or in addition to, a meta-analysis to capture underlying similarities that support conclusions.  An evidence table collates and reports information from a single study.  A summary table combines information across multiple studies.  Proper table construction and thorough data abstraction are crucial if the results of a review are to be accurately conveyed.  Evidence maps provide a graphical representation of available studies and help readers compare report outcomes.
