Background:
.
Meta-analyses are important for aggregating trial results to identify
conclusions that cannot be made through separate examination. A thorough
literature search is of utmost importance in constructing a meta-analysis.
The PubMed interface from the National Library of Medicine is a
cornerstone of many meta-analysis searches, and the largest component of
PubMed is the MEDLINE database. Each article in this database has a unique
entry with information about the study's participants and design. However,
database entries are available for public search before the entry is
finished, leaving a lag time during which data about the study design and
participants may not yet be recorded in the database.
