I'm a "contact editor" for the Heart Group (only for a year or so now...) and based on my perspective, that seems an adequate description of the process. I would think that with "publish when ready", the ability to anticipate release of reviews may be less of an issue Bill Cayley, Jr, MD MDiv [log in to unmask] [log in to unmask] Work: Augusta Family Medicine 207 W Lincoln, Augusta, WI 54722 Tel: 715.286.2270 Pager: 715.838.7940 Home: 3604 Sharon Drive, Eau Claire, WI 54701 Tel: 715.830.0932 Mobile: 715.828.4636 "I think some of the most celebrated moments in human achievement should be those times when everything is going against a person and they are down in the dumps but they simply choose to get up.

Cochrane reviews can go through several rounds of internal review until the editorial team is satisfied with the quality of the review. Also, now Cochrane has moved to a publish when ready model, where once a review is entered in the system as ready for publishing, it gets published a few hours later in the CDSR. So for you to get the information you are after, either you have get a close working relationship with each managing editor in the Cochrane review groups or forge an official relationship between Trip and Cochrane so you are notified on a regular basis. Of course, I may be completely wrong, but that’s the way I am seeing the situation. Hope this helps.

The protocol has been suggested but there appears to be little ability to predict when a review is published based on the protocol - but I'll happy to hear otherwise. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Best wishes jon -- Jon Brassey Trip Database http://www.tripdatabase.com Find evidence fast
