Abstract

Publications of living systematic reviews (LSRs) are increasing rapidly. Guidance facilitating transparent, complete, and accurate reporting of LSRs is needed. This paper reports the development of an extension of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 statement for LSRs (PRISMA-LSR). The PRISMA-LSR extension includes the PRISMA-LSR checklist, the PRISMA-LSR flow diagram, reporting recommendations for the LSR status, and an explanation and elaboration document. This extension has been developed as an “add-on” to the PRISMA 2020 statement, meaning it should be used in addition to the PRISMA 2020 statement. The PRISMA-LSR extension is expected to benefit authors, editors, peer reviewers, and users of LSRs through transparent, complete, and accurate reporting of LSRs. Living systematic reviews (LSRs) are attracting attention from researchers and medical journals.12 Between 2014 (when the LSR approach first emerged3) and 2019, the rate of publication of these systematic reviews was low; however, since 2019, there has been a rapid increase. Indeed, the total number of LSRs published in 2020 and 2021 exceeded the total number published before 2020.4 LSRs are characterised by a continual search of the literature so that new evidence can be incorporated soon after it becomes available.35 These reviews are particularly important when research is published rapidly and where concomitant policy decisions are required, such as during the covid-19 pandemic.678 The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 statement is intended to facilitate transparent, complete, and accurate reporting of systematic reviews.9101112 The PRISMA 2020 statement was designed primarily to provide guidance for systematic reviews of studies that evaluate the effects of interventions. While the statement was intended for original, updated, or living systematic reviews, the developers noted that there might be additional reporting considerations that …

用于活系统综述的 PRISMA 2020 声明扩展 (PRISMA-LSR)：核对表和说明

活系统综述（LSR）的出版物正在迅速增加。我们需要一份有助于透明、完整、准确地报告 LSR 的指南。本文报告了系统综述和 Meta 分析首选报告项目 (PRISMA) 2020 声明针对 LSR 的扩展（PRISMA-LSR）。PRISMA-LSR 扩展包括 PRISMA-LSR 核对表、PRISMA-LSR 流程图、LSR 状态的报告建议以及解释和说明文档。该扩展部分是作为 PRISMA 2020 声明的 "附加部分 "开发的，这意味着它应作为 PRISMA 2020 声明的补充。通过透明、完整和准确地报告 LSR，PRISMA-LSR 扩展有望使 LSR 的作者、编辑、同行评审员和用户受益。12从 2014 年（LSR 方法首次出现3）到 2019 年，这些系统综述的发表率很低；但自 2019 年以来，发表率迅速上升。事实上，2020 年和 2021 年发表的 LSR 总数超过了 2020 年之前发表的总数。4 LSR 的特点是对文献进行持续检索，以便在获得新证据后能尽快将其纳入35。系统综述和 Meta 分析首选报告项目 (PRISMA) 2020 声明旨在促进透明、完整和准确地报告系统综述。9101112 PRISMA 2020 声明主要是为评估干预效果的研究的系统综述提供指导。虽然该声明适用于原始、更新或仍在进行中的系统综述，但制定者指出，可能还有其他报告方面的注意事项......
