La conduite d'une revue des revues offre [...] la possibilité d'aborder de nombreuses questions liées à un sujet d'intérêt. Le but de cette revue est d'identifier des RS [revues systématiques] de haute qualité sur un sujet spécifique avec pour principal objectif de résumer les données disponibles et d'examiner l'effet des interventions. [...] En outre, la revue générale utilise les méthodes et règles de la RS pour analyser les données des RS et des MA [méta-analyses] publiées.
