Abstract
The aim of this article is to perform an update on the basic concepts, indications, strengths and weaknesses of SRs, as well as the development of an SR, the most important potential biases to be taken into account in this type of design, and the basic concepts as regards the meta-analysis. Two examples of SR are also included, of use for surgeons, who often come across this type of design when searching for scientific evidence in biomedical journal bases.
