Define inclusion/exclusion criteria for systematic study selection in meta-analysis

  • Solves the problem of inconsistent or biased study selection in meta-analysis
  • Depends on PICO framework and study type definitions from earlier analysis
  • Applies structured decision rules to classify studies based on predefined criteria
  • Delivers a reproducible eligibility document for multi-reviewer screening

# Inclusion Criteria Design SOP

Define rigorous inclusion and exclusion criteria for study selection, ensuring reproducibility and minimizing selection bias.

## When to Use

- After PICO formulation is complete
- Before beginning systematic search
- When refining scope after pilot search reveals too many/few results

## Input

- `pico_framework`: The structured PICO/PECO output from pico-formulation
- `study_types`: Acceptable study designs (RCT, cohort, case-control, cross-sectional, etc.)

## Output

Complete eligibility criteria document with decision rules for borderline cases, suitable for independent screening by multiple reviewers.
