I understood why a search strategy has to be so detailed for a systematic review. I also learnt that I cannot use the [Mesh] tag for just any search term. I got clarity that subheadings need to be used only in rare instances. I learnt how careful I need to be while using Boolean operators and understood how to find all possible text words. I learnt how to document the strategy to use in the Review. What I liked the most about this QMED course, was the practical training and hands-on experience.
