Evidence review automation tools

Catchii

This systematic (literature) review (SR) screener is designed to provide a good user experience while going through a large dataset of scientific articles.

It supports all main stages of an SR, from detecting duplicates to creating PRISMA flowcharts for the manuscript. Screening can be done on your computer, tablet, or smartphone, making it an easy way to get some work done in the office, at home or even on the plane.

Catchii aims to be a fast and user-friendly SR screener, helping you to catch all the papers you are looking for in a short time. In addition to providing all the desirable features of an SR screener, it is also completely free.

TERA (The Evidence Review Accelerator)

This suite of free tools helps you to design and conduct research faster, with an emphasis on maintaining rigorous, transparent and reproducible methods. You must create a free account then create a project before all the tools become visible.

See the Help topics for more information about each tool, or watch the TERA workshop video for an in‑depth walk‑through.

How TERA can fit into your workflow

Each tool is designed to help with a specific review task so you can use as many or as few as you like. Here are just a few of the tools available:

The Review Wizard
For a review, start here, and use this tool to help design and write your review methods section. Help guide. Other methods wizards are the Scoping Wizard for scoping reviews, the Trials Wizard for randomised trials and the Audit Wizard for Clinical audit reports.
Word Frequency Analyser
Upload some pre-identified studies that are relevant to your project. This tool will then display the most commonly-used words or phrases that appear. Choose the relevant words for your search strategy. Help guide.
Deduplicator
Upload your search results to the Deduplicator which will mark duplicate records. After reviewing the results download the deduplicated set ready to be screened. Help guide.
Screenatron
Import the records you want to screen to Screenatron, then determine if the records should be included, or excluded. This tool runs locally on individual computers so each screener works individually on their own pool of studies. Help guide.
Disputatron
Upload the 'include' decisions of the two reviewers who screened the same records, look at any disagreements and decide if they should be included or excluded, then download the final include set. Help guide.
SpiderCite
Upload your included studies to SpiderCite to generate all forwards and backwards citations (1 level deep) of those articles. Help guide.

'Apps for mobile devices' information on Library website

Many of the online resources available to Library users include dedicated mobile apps for quick access on your phone or tablet.

However, finding a specific app and then getting it working can sometimes be a challenge, so we've got them listed all in one place along with concise, step‑by-step instructions on setting them up.

Be sure to use your organisational email address when signing up for these services. Remote access will require either an OpenAthens account from the Library or a Medical Director remote access account from Clinicians Health Channel.

Defeating a virus that killed half a billion people

The Plea is a data-driven documentary that tells the story of the first vaccine and the eradication of smallpox—a modern retelling of one of humanity's greatest triumphs.

Narrated through archival footage, along with charts and graphics that put the devastation of the virus into stark perspective, this 25-minute film highlights the pivotal moments and relentless dedication of public health workers in eradicating the virus.

At the heart of the documentary is the story of how a coordinated global campaign, marked by mass vaccination, surveillance, and rapid response, achieved what many thought impossible. It underscores the challenges faced in remote and conflict-ridden regions, where health workers risked their lives to reach the last pockets of infection. It remains the first and only human disease eradicated through public health intervention.

The documentary serves as a powerful reminder of what global cooperation, scientific rigor, and sustained political will can accomplish, and offers crucial lessons for tackling current and future health threats.

Fever in children: case based learning / by Padmasani Venkat Ramanan and Ramachandran Padmanabhan. Springer, 2024
This book describes a practical, case-based approach to diagnosing the cause of fever in children. The presentation simulates everyday challenges in the outpatient clinic and in-patient ward rounds, taking the learner systematically through the process of targeted history and focused clinical examination, which should result in making a provisional clinical diagnosis. A discussion on possible differentials, rational use of investigations, interpretation of lab reports, and treatment follows this.

Neonatal airway management / edited by Lindsay C. Johnston and Taylor Sawyer. Springer, 2025
Intubation is one of the most performed procedures in neonatal medicine. The field of neonatal airway management has been transformed by many notable developments over the past 5-10 years. Most importantly, the use of pre-medication, video-laryngoscopy, and laryngeal masks have been the subject of numerous recent clinical investigations and academic publications. Despite ongoing research, neonatal airway management continues to carry a high risk of complications and both short and long-term morbidities.

The book reviews patient, practice, provider, and system factors important in neonatal airway management. Chapters explore key topic areas including airway management techniques, training, competency assessment, premedication, video laryngoscopy, laryngeal mask airway, and others.

This book provides a comprehensive, state-of-the art review of neonatal airway management, and serves as a valuable resource for clinicians, educators, and researchers involved in neonatal care.
