What are the best approaches for reporting the findings of a rapid review in a clear, succinct way without limiting information on the complete methods, findings and strength of the evidence?

  • “How do we communicate evidence in a concise and informative way while also getting across the limitations of the evidence? Both to general audience but also to scientific audience who are bombarded with information and may not have time to read the full paper”
  • “How can the review report which are typically long, be condensed to reduce time in writing/reviewing of reports”
  • “If reports are made shorter, how do we ensure the evidence is fairly evaluated and this process recorded?”
