Fitch S, Goyak KO, Grimm FA, Green ML, Wikoff D. 2021. Protocol for a Systematic Mapping Review of Estrogen Mediated Outcomes for Alkylphenols via an Adverse Outcome Pathway Construct. Nov. 22, 2021; https://osf.io/m25nj/files/6rtpq.
Abstract
The overall approach involves developing a systematic map. In contrast to “systematic review,” which uses a structured process to answer a specific question, a “systematic map” uses a structured process to describe the state of knowledge for a question or
topic. The protocol for the systematic map was developed in accordance with the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Reviewers’ Manual 2015 Methodology for JBI Scoping Reviews. Further, because the outcome of interest involves estrogen mediation, authoritative guidance regarding evaluation of estrogen mediated responses from OECD and EFSA/ECHA will be utilized to help structure the search, extraction, and organization of information in the map related to potential key events associated with estrogen mediation.
