This article presents a simple EndNote method for managing references in systematic and scoping reviews. The approach enhances rigor, reproducibility, and user-friendliness for researchers, aligning with PRISMA guidelines.
Area of Science:
- Bibliometrics and Research Management
- Information Science
- Health Sciences Research
Background:
- Systematic and scoping reviews require rigorous reference management.
- Existing methods can be complex for new researchers.
- Adherence to reporting guidelines like PRISMA is crucial.
Purpose of the Study:
- To introduce a straightforward EndNote-based process for managing references in systematic and scoping reviews.
- To simplify the conduct and reporting of reviews for novice researchers.
- To ensure systematic review reporting aligns with PRISMA guidelines.
Main Methods:
- Utilizing EndNote software for reference organization and coding.
- Developing a step-by-step workflow for systematic and scoping review conduct.
- Integrating PRISMA reporting checklist requirements into the EndNote process.
Main Results:
- A user-friendly and efficient method for managing review references.
- Improved reproducibility and rigor in systematic and scoping review reporting.
- Reduced complexity for researchers new to EndNote and review methodologies.
Conclusions:
- The described EndNote approach streamlines systematic and scoping review processes.
- This method supports adherence to PRISMA guidelines for transparent reporting.
- It offers a practical solution for enhancing the quality and efficiency of literature reviews.

Guidelines for Writing Outcome
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...
