The PRISMA 2020 statement: An updated guideline for reporting systematic reviews
Fig 1
PRISMA 2020 flow diagram template for systematic reviews.
The new design is adapted from flow diagrams proposed by Boers,[55] Mayo-Wilson et al.[56] and Stovold et al.[57] The boxes in grey should only be completed if applicable; otherwise they should be removed from the flow diagram. Note that a “report” could be a journal article, preprint, conference abstract, study register entry, clinical study report, dissertation, unpublished manuscript, government report or any other document providing relevant information.
