Resources for Systematic Reviews

There are resources available via the Internet that provide systematic reviews.

  • The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics provides systematic reviews and evidence summaries via the Evidence Analysis Library (EAL). While K-State Libraries does not subscribe to EAL, substantial content is freely accessible. Individual subscriptions are available, and dietetics instructors may be able to  assist with subscriber-only materials.
  • Epistemonikos is a multilingual database of health-related systematic reviews with global access. It is very useful for diverse perspectives in dietetics.

There are 2 databases that we search for articles. They also contain other sections with further synthesized information.

  • Clinical Queries in PubMed is a streamlined search for systematic reviews in all areas of healthcare, including clinical and nutrition topics.
  • Cochrane Library contains Cochrane Nutrition. This specific section is is dedicated to high-quality, nutrition-specific systematic reviews that inform practice and policy.
