Add abstract screening to AutoLit dashboard#447
For systematic literature reviews with a large number of references and multiple screeners, it would be very helpful to see the number of references screened by user.
This would help with time completion estimates, workload delegation, and accountability.
Example screenshot included.
Hi @Dnikitin We offer this for final screening at your “Dashboard” under “Nest Home”. These stats are “final” only, so currently don’t reflect reviewer-level (dual screening) or abstract screens (two pass screening), although we could discuss how that may be integrated!
Wow, I totally missed this!
Can you clarify what you mean by “final”?
Sure! ‘Final’ screening is the screening decision that dictates if a record is included/excluded from your review. ‘Final’ inclusions move on to tagging/extraction/RoB & Synthesis. Across the various screening modes, ‘final’ is:
- Single screening: the screening decision selected
- Dual screening: The adjudicated screening decision
- Two pass screening: The full text screening decision
- (Future) Dual, two pass screening: The adjudicated, full text screening decision.
So, with regard to the issue you’ve mentioned here, showing final-only screens (which ignores abstract screening & reviewer-level screening) is an incomplete picture.
From my own dashboard, I see that I screened 213 references this week, which seems correct, I even screened one to see if that number went up (it did). But these are not “final”, as it still needs to be verified by a second coder. If it was final, wouldn’t it only show the number of refs that I screened and that was also adjucitated?
But overall, the dashboard numbers that I’m currently seeing is exactly what I had in mind when I made the request, so I’m content!
Oops! I misremembered; reviewer-level screening in dual screening is tabulated here. So sorry for the miscommunication, but we’re both happy with the end result :)
Excellent, thanks Karl! Feel free to archive this nolt.
I’m repurposing this issue to add abstract screening, which I’ve now verified in our code, is not being tabulated in Dashboard.
