How It Works
- Tell us your research question and how the review will be used, for example in a regulatory submission, an HTA dossier or a journal publication
- We develop and register the protocol on PROSPERO, then run the search, study selection, data extraction and risk of bias assessment
- We run the meta-analysis with heterogeneity, sensitivity and publication bias analyses, and summarize the evidence with GRADE
- You review the draft manuscript and evidence tables, we revise based on your feedback, and you receive the full journal-ready manuscript
Which Service Do You Need?
This service is built for industry-sponsored reviews that support regulatory, HTA or label decisions. For a systematic review and meta-analysis aimed at journal publication, see Professional Meta-Analysis & Systematic Review Services. To compare multiple interventions in one analysis, see Network Meta-Analysis Service. If you only need the quality assessment of included studies, see Risk of Bias Assessment.
