Medical Systematic Review Writer
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I’m preparing a peer-reviewed medical manuscript and need an experienced researcher to take the lead on a full systematic review. The topic is health-related, and I want the final product to be ready for journal submission.
Scope of work
• Develop a transparent protocol aligned with PRISMA guidelines and register it (PROSPERO or similar).
• Carry out a comprehensive search strategy across PubMed, Cochrane Library, and EMBASE; I’m open to adding any other databases you feel are essential to avoid publication bias.
• Screen titles, abstracts, and full texts, extract data into well-structured tables, and appraise study quality (Cochrane RoB, Newcastle-Ottawa, or other tools appropriate to the study designs you uncover).
• Synthesise findings—meta-analysis if data allow, otherwise narrative synthesis—clearly reporting heterogeneity and certainty of evidence (GRADE).
• Produce all graphics: PRISMA flow diagram, forest and funnel plots.
• Draft the full manuscript (≈4,000–6,000 words) in my target journal’s style, with references formatted by EndNote/Zotero.
Acceptance criteria
1. Search strings, screening logs, and data-extraction sheets are shareable and reproducible.
2. PRISMA checklist completed with page references.
3. Manuscript passes plagiarism and language checks and is submission-ready.
Please share in your bid examples of published systematic reviews or meta-analyses you have authored, your preferred statistical software (RevMan, Stata, R, etc.), and your estimated timeline.
