In Brief

The whole purpose of research is to increase the collective understanding on the topic and contribute productively.
The number of publications, research, and journals are increasing by the day with an increasing need for dedicated medical writing or literature review services with domain- related expertise.
Clinical literature review services are providing immense support to busy clinicians and researchers on how to write a literature review.
The purpose of a proper literature review can be summarized as below : -

Purpose of Literature Review in Healthcare Research
Literature review help explore previous research conducted in the field of interest, the limitations and conflict areas identified and the need for further research.
It also helps one in understanding and formulating one’s area of research in a better manner and justifies the methodology used.
Literature review article helps connect the statistical findings of the research with prior research statistics.
It also conveys that the researcher is serious and dedicated about the research and intends to complete the project.
Contd..
Literature review writing help is needed in preventing duplication of research and avoiding redundant fields and is needed for good quality research paper.
Literature review is the preliminary step in any dissertation as part of an academic requirement. How to write a literature review is also an important part of the curriculum.
I ntroduction to a primary research topic – This sets thecontext for the research article or dissertation by analysing previously published literature and clearly defining the place of the current research.
S ystematic review –It is related to m eta-analysis and provide a quantitative or less often qualitative statistic summarizing several papers.
Secondary data analysis projects- It is a research project on its own and begins with a clear research question. The project aims at analysing available data in answering the question.
There are various circumstances under which one must do a literature review.
Context of Literature Review Writing
1. The research question should be clear and crisp, preferably one that can be analysed quantitatively.
2. Picking up the right articles is an art and one should have clear inclusion and exclusion criteria to perform a relevant review.
3. Citations should be recent and relevant in thecurrent context.
4. Citations should include not only those studies with clear-cut outcomes, it should also include those that are inconclusive or require further research.
Contd..
Do’s and Don’ts in Literature Review
1. Do’s
5. Critical appraisal of the studies cited with an analytical review of the same is to be done.
6. Adequate number of citations is often defined by the journal and that needs to be followed.
7. Organise and document the data in a format that best suits and justifies the research study.
1. Research question should not be ambiguous as it will result in a haphazard start to the research study.
2. Deviations or inconsistency in following the defined inclusion and exclusion criteria make the findings unreliable.
3. Citations that are old and outdated in the current contextare to be avoided.
4. Bias in citations that intentionally quote only those that are congruent in their conclusions to the current study should be avoided.
Contd..
2. Don’ts
5. Not weighing the studies under consideration for the quality of research result in inclusion of poor-quality literature that make the outcomes unreliable.
6. Too few or too many citations fail to convey the crux in the correct proportions.
7. Data organised in a haphazard manner becomes inconclusive and does not interest the reader and sends a wrong message about the quality of the study.
Contd..
Basically, depending on the requirement of the topic of literature research, whether it is recent or been around for several years, whether most facts are clear or unclear, whether researchers agree or disagree on most matters and what is the outcome needed out of the literature search in context of the objective of the current study.
In short, the review should be well-structured and should have some form to the flow of information.
Setting the factual context of the current research study is the first step to participate in the ongoing ‘dialogue’ on the subject and contribute positively to that area of research.
L iterature review services help the busy researcher and how to write a literature review article.
