Downloadable Search Box Lets Colleagues Review Referenced Articles
Ottawa, ON (PRWEB) July 19, 2007 -- TrialStat Corporation, a clinical data solutions on demand company, today announced enhancements to SRS 4.0™, the company’s market leading systematic review platform, that speeds and simplifies the management of systematic reviews. Used in the practice of evidence-based medicine, outcomes research and health technology assessment, systematic reviews synthesize and evaluate the results of separate studies conducted within a given research area. SRS 4.0 is the world’s only commercial Web-enabled solution designed to streamline the screening and data collection phases of systematic reviews. This solution significantly reduces the time and cost of reviews while improving their auditability, transparency and reproducibility.
SRS 4.0’s new features include:
- Customizable Keyword Highlighting. Keyword highlighting of study abstracts draws reviewers eyes to important sections of text by displaying terms in different colors, reducing the time required to find and extract data.
- Companion Studies Grouping. Grouping allows multiple papers referring to the same study to be grouped together. This ensures that all data available for a given study is presented to reviewers under one grouping.
- Custom ESRNexus™ Search Box. SRS users now have the option of publishing the references used in their systematic reviews to the publicly searchable ESRNexus (www.esrnexus.com) database. Users can then generate a custom search box on their own Web site that will allow visitors to search their reference lists.
“SRS 4.0’s enhancements are a result of the continuous and valued input of our users around the world,” said Peter O’Blenis, Vice President Systematic Reviews, TrialStat Corporation. “Increasingly, systematic reviews are at the forefront of health technology assessment and outcomes research. SRS provides private and public sector research professionals a Web-based solution that greatly lowers the time and expense of traditional paper-based systematic reviews, while automating data collection and facilitating collaboration with colleagues around the world.”
The continuously growing volume of published medical literature has created an urgent need for tools and software to assist with summarizing and analyzing relevant information. Since 2001, SRS has been used by research teams to conduct systematic reviews of literature for health technology assessment, outcomes research and evidence-based practices. SRS replaces many of the operational and paper-intensive aspects of systematic reviews, allowing reviewers to complete them more quickly, cost effectively and with better accuracy and quality.
