JGME Literature Review Series
This series provides an overview of 8 influential approaches to knowledge synthesis: Systematic Reviews, Realist Reviews, Narrative Reviews, Scoping Reviews, State-of-the-Art, Critical Reviews, Meta-ethnographic Reviews, and Integrative Reviews. For each literature review, 2 articles are provided: (1) an overview of the review type with background information on philosophical foundations, purposes, and expected products for readers and researches, and (2) a short article with steps that outline the "nuts and bolts" of this type of review.
