Step 2: Finding the best evidence
Finding the best evidence with which to answer the question through structured searches and understanding the literature:
• Primary Studies• Clinical trials• Randomized
Controlled Trials• Multicenter studies
• Secondary (synthesized, summarized) Studies• Reviews• Meta-analyses

Systematic Reviews
• Critical assessment and evaluation of all research studies that address a particular clinical issue
• Studies are searched for and included in the review using a set of specific criteria
• May include a quantitative pooling of data, called a meta-analysis.
• Example: Scientists collected all the published studies that compared types of treatment for prostate cancer that had not spread beyond the prostate gland. They compiled the results of these studies in a comparative effectiveness review, which is a type of systematic review.
