CASE ANALYSIS

Scenario

This diagram depicts the study selection process for new studies identified in an updated systematic review on telemedicine for diabetes management, excluding previously included studies for clarity.

Key decisions

  • Restricted to the new search phase of an updated review, omitting the 'previous studies' box
  • Adjusted study counts to reflect only newly identified studies

When to reuse this

When reporting the update of a systematic review, focusing solely on the new literature search phase, especially if the previous review’s flow is already documented elsewhere.
