Evidence Map

Summary. 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.
