Evidence Maps

A Brief Overview

slide-3
SLIDE 3

Evidence Map Definition (Katz 2003)

“A means of systematically organizing the base of evidence pertaining to a broad topic… so that the distribution, breadth, depth, methodology, and

  • verall quality of pertinent evidence is characterized

and made readily accessible.”

Katz et al. Alternative Therapies. 2003;9(4):22-30.

SLIDE 4

Evidence Map Definition (Hetrick 2010)

“Less exhaustive yet systematic and replicable methodology that allows an understanding of the extent and distribution of evidence in a broad clinical area, highlighting both what is known and where gaps in evidence exist.”

Hetrick et al. J Eval Clin Pract. 2010;16(6):1025-30.

SLIDE 5

Evidence Map Definition (Miake-Lye 2016)

“A systematic search of a broad field to identify gaps in knowledge and/or future research needs that presents results in a user-friendly format, often a… searchable database.”

Miake-Lye et al. Systematic Reviews 2016; 5:28.

Features of Evidence Maps

  • Systematic process

(eg, documented search strategy, inclusion criteria)

  • Review of evidence of (usually) a broad field to

– Describe characteristics of existing evidence – Identify research gaps and future research needs

  • Briefly summarizes included studies
  • Provides data on (for example)

– PICO-D – Sample size – ± Basic study results or conclusions – (Not detailed study results; Usually not study quality)

Scoping Study (Arksey 2005, O’Brien 2016)

  • Rapidly map key concepts underpinning a research area,

and sources and types of evidence available

– Extent, range, nature of research activity

  • Determine value of undertaking a full systematic review

– Eg, does literature exist? have SRs been done?

  • Summarize and disseminate research findings
  • Identify research gaps in the existing literature

– Does not address gaps due to poor quality research

Arksey et al. Int J Soc Res Method 2005;8(1):19-32. O’Brien et al. Health Serv Res 2016;16:305.

Basic Steps

  • Mostly follow standard systematic review

process

– Identify research question – Develop protocol – Define eligibility criteria (eg, PICO-D) – Systematically search literature – Screen (select) citations (± full text articles) – Extract pertinent data – Organize, summarize, report, map results

SLIDE 12

How Differs from Systematic Review

  • Usually covers a broader field / range of questions than a SR
  • Eligibility criteria may be more expansive (inclusive) than a SR
  • May be based on citations/abstracts only (not full text)

→ incomplete extraction of outcome list and analyses

  • Omits details of study methodology, eligibility criteria,

participant and intervention characteristics, etc.

  • Omits study quality / risk of bias assessment
  • Usually omits extraction of (detailed) study results or

conclusions

– May include directionality, statistical significance, etc.

  • Less time/resource intensive than SR of same topic/scope
  • Categorizes existing literature more than summarize findings

12

slide-13
SLIDE 13

Example Evidence Map

  • Omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 FA) and Cardiovascular disease (CVD)

– Used to describe breadth and types of evidence to scope a systematic review update

  • What is the efficacy or association of n-3 FA (EPA, DHA, EPA+DHA,

DPA, SDA, ALA, or total n-3 FA) exposures in reducing CVD

  • utcomes (incident CVD events, including all-cause death, CVD

death, nonfatal CVD events, new diagnosis of CVD, peripheral vascular disease, CHF, major arrhythmias, and hypertension diagnosis) and specific CVD risk factors (BP, key plasma lipids)?

– Without known CVD (primary prevention) – At high risk for CVD (primary prevention) – With known CVD (secondary prevention) – Other subpopulations – Interactions with CVD and diabetes drugs

13

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Omega-3 Fatty Acids and CVD

  • Literature search (and existing SRs) yielded 462 articles

that met basic eligibility criteria:

– Adults (healthy, at CVD risk, with CVD) – Comparison of n-3 FA intake (as food or supplement) with other n- 3 FA or other level of intake (including “placebo”) – Association of baseline n-3 FA intake or biomarker with future CVD event – CVD events (1 year follow-up), BP/Cholesterol (4 week follow-up) – RCTs (for comparisons) Prospective longitudinal observational studies

  • Needed to constrain literature review given resource

and time constraints, but also to create a searchable database for others to use for future reviews

14

slide-15
SLIDE 15

A Priori Approach to Limit Scope

  • Goal was to capture “best”, “most generalizable”

evidence for each specific topic to address most important key questions

  • Planned to select largest, longest follow-up, most

generalizable studies for each specific topic – Wanted to prioritize larger studies with longer follow-up duration or that reported interaction analyses of interest

15

slide-16
SLIDE 16

Evidence Map Design

  • Designed evidence map to capture (from abstract)

– Sample size (N, N taking n-3 FA) – Study design – Population type (healthy, at risk, CVD) – Specific n-3 FA(s) (“fish oil” [EPA, DHA, DPA], SDA, ALA, total, unclear) – Biomarker study – Interaction between n-3 FA and drug – Subgroup or predictor analysis – Study duration – Specific outcome(s)

  • Based on these data, selected “most relevant” studies

à 61 RCTs (82 articles) & 37 observational (65 articles)

slide-18
SLIDE 18

Systematic Review Data Repository (SRDR)

  • Online, open access archive of searchable

systematic review data

– Key questions – Extraction forms – Data extracted from included studies

  • Collaborative workspace for completing the data

extraction phase of systematic reviews

– Powerful, web-based tools – Flexible options for data extraction – Platform from which a complete systematic review tool is being developed.

System Status

  • System has been in development for 6+ years
  • Launched on June 20th 2012
  • Hosted on the Amazon Cloud (via AHRQ link)
  • Designed and maintained by the SRDR Team lead by
  • Dr. Joseph Lau at Brown University
  • SRDR is committed to a policy of open access and

data sharing. All systematic review data published to the SRDR archive are publically available under the terms of a Creative Commons license

Value of SRDR to Systematic Reviewers

  • Open access

– Free registration, access and support

  • Useful systematic review tools

  • Participate in collaborative development of SRDR

20

slide-21
SLIDE 21
  • Access to high quality data used in SRs
  • Minimize need to repeat expensive process, save

time, money, and resources

– Particularly when updating reviews and guidelines

  • Collaborate in development of a worldwide

resource

– Allow developers to benefit from others’ experience and expertise

Potential Benefits of Using SRDR to Create an Evidence Map

  • Customize electronic extraction forms
  • Work collaboratively collecting data from studies

using the extraction forms

  • Export complete evidence map data-sets to

spreadsheet files (to allow analysis)

  • Share evidence map datasets with other guideline
