Writing up your review

 

When it comes to writing up the results of your review, you may find the following resources helpful:

The Study Skills Team can help you with writing up your literature review.

You might also want to look at the PRISMA statement which includes a checklist for reporting your systematic review and a flow diagram to use when recording your search strategy within your report. There is a PRISMA flow chart generator to help you create a flow chart to document your search. 

The Cochrane Handbook has guidance about how to write up your systematic review. The Equator Network has reporting guidelines for many study types.
