Abstract
Systematic reviews and meta-analyses provide the highest levels of evidence to support practice and research. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 guidelines were established to ensure comprehensive and transparent reporting. Among the 70 reviews in our study, there was 100% adherence to 4 of the PRISMA items (review type in title, research objectives in introduction, inclusion/exclusion criteria and methods to synthesize results in methods section). We identified an improvement in adherence to the PRISMA guidelines when comparing early (done through 2020) and more recent reviews, suggesting that authors are increasingly adopting these guidelines.
