总结在国际系统性综述前瞻性注册中心（PROSPERO）注册的最近完成的系统性综述的后勤方面，以量化完成此类项目所需的时间和资源。荟萃分析.在我们检索时（2014年7月1日），所有195篇已注册和已完成的综述（PROSPERO登记研究的状态）以及相关出版物。所有作者均使用与所用数据源相关的注册表条目和出版物信息提取数据、最初检索到的引文数量、最终纳入研究数量、注册日期至出版日期之间的时间以及完成每篇出版物所涉及的作者数量。报告时还记录了与供资和地理位置有关的信息。完成项目和发表综述的平均估计时间为67.3周（IQR=42）。 文献检索中发现的研究数量范围为27 - 92020;纳入研究的平均产出率为2.94%（IQR=2.5）;平均每篇综述的作者数为5，SD=3。 与未报告资助的研究相比，资助的研究完成和发表所需时间明显更长（平均=42 vs 26周），涉及更多的作者和团队成员（平均=6.8 vs 4.8人）（均p<0.001）。系统性审查目前需要大量时间和人力资源。鉴于已发表的研究报告数量不断增加，应应用现有的计算和信息技术来减少这一时间和资源负担。我们讨论了最近出版的指南，提供了一个框架，使寻找和访问相关文献的负担较轻。
To summarise logistical aspects of recently completed systematic reviews that were registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) registry to quantify the time and resources required to complete such projects. Meta-analysis. All of the 195 registered and completed reviews (status from the PROSPERO registry) with associated publications at the time of our search (1 July 2014). All authors extracted data using registry entries and publication information related to the data sources used, the number of initially retrieved citations, the final number of included studies, the time between registration date to publication date and number of authors involved for completion of each publication. Information related to funding and geographical location was also recorded when reported. The mean estimated time to complete the project and publish the review was 67.3 weeks (IQR=42). The number of studies found in the literature searches ranged from 27 to 92 020; the mean yield rate of included studies was 2.94% (IQR=2.5); and the mean number of authors per review was 5, SD=3. Funded reviews took significantly longer to complete and publish (mean=42 vs 26 weeks) and involved more authors and team members (mean=6.8 vs 4.8 people) than those that did not report funding (both p<0.001). Systematic reviews presently take much time and require large amounts of human resources. In the light of the ever-increasing volume of published studies, application of existing computing and informatics technology should be applied to decrease this time and resource burden. We discuss recently published guidelines that provide a framework to make finding and accessing relevant literature less burdensome.
