To capture this information, the PRISMA flow diagram now requests information on these phases of the review process. Endorsement The PRISMA Statement should replace the QUOROM Statement for those journals that have endorsed QUOROM. We hope that other journals will support PRISMA; they can do so by...

The heterogeneity observed in the ways LSR authors report on the study flow is likely to be explained by the lack of clear guidance on how to do so. Implications for practice We built our proposal on the PRISMA 2020 flow diagram and provide four approaches to tailor the needs for continual...

This limitation can partly explained the different results between case-control and cohort studies in the stratified analysis. Second, we cannot exclude the possibility that the observed null relationship between allergic disorders and prostate cancer risk is attributed to confounding factors. Majority of...
some of the observed heterogeneity could not be explained by subgroup meta-analysis, and is likely to reflect real differences in studied populations or in the methods employed among different studies. This limits the external validity of pooled effect-size estimates. These limitations notwithstanding,...
