Artificial Intelligence for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Research in Nursing Management
Keywords:
Artificial Intelligence, Systematic Review, Nursing Management, Software Tools, PRISMA 2020Abstract
Systematic Review (SR) is a critical methodology for synthesizing evidence in nursing management. This article presents an overview of AI applications to enhance SR research across six key phases: reference management, screening and selection, data extraction, meta-analysis, risk of bias assessment, and reporting standards. Tools including Zotero, Rayyan, REDCap, R (metafor), RoB 2, JBI Critical Appraisal Tools, and PRISMA 2020 are discussed. Findings indicate that AI significantly reduces researcher workload, improves screening accuracy, and promotes international reporting standards. This article aims to support graduate students and researchers in nursing administration to select appropriate and effective tools for high-quality systematic review research.
