Community Guide Methods Manual Now Available

The Community Guide has released a Methods Manual for Community Guide Systematic Reviews, which provides the systematic review methods used for assessing the effectiveness and economic evidence that serves as the basis for the Community Preventive Services Task Force (CPSTF) findings and recommendations. The manual is designed to enhance learning about Community Guide systematic review methods. The information can help decision-makers more confidently select and implement interventions recommended by CPSTF and help researchers critically assess CPSTF findings and identify areas of research to fill evidence gaps.
