Congratulations to Xuenan Pang, a PhD scholar with Evidence Synthesis Ireland, for the first Registered Report published in the Journal of Clinical Epidemiology through Elsevier’s pilot program. This article is a protocol for a systematic review [Stage I] comparing various artificial intelligence (AI) based tools with conventional manual approaches in the systematic review process. As reported by Xuenan, ‘As we are heading into Stage II, I’m excited to see our contributions shape the growing conversation around AI in systematic reviews.’
This systematic review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of AI-based automated methods in conducting systematic reviews, focusing on both performance and resource utilization compared to human reviewers.
