Primary sources of research are immediately available observations regarding a topic
obtained from people with direct experience. This can include but not limited to a
textbook, an article, and journals. A primary source makes available firsthand evidence
with original data.
An overview or comprehensive analysis of previous research is referred to as a
literature review. A literature review has a purpose to get a better understanding of
specific research.
According to an article wrote by Maeda et al. (2021), “systematic review is a
‘methodology used systematically to search for and synthesize knowledge generated
through empirical studies to inform policy and decision-making and to uncover hidden
patterns or trends that exist among relevant studies’(Grant & Booth, 2009)”. This
approach is usually used to minimized bias in summarizing research and is a form of
secondary research.
A meta-analysis is a “statistical approach to synthesizing the results of a number of
studies that produce a larger sample size and thus greater power to determine the true
magnitude of an effect” (Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt, 2019, p. 171). A systematic review
involves many studies to address a specific clinical question while avoiding bias, and
meta-analysis is used to analyze the studies into one result.

Primary sources of research include the original data collected by the researcher or the
feelings and interpretation of the research by participants (Schuurman & Eijkman,
2013). However secondary sources include interpretations of research by other authors
(Schuurman & Eijkman, 2013). Sources of primary studies include CINAHL, Embase,
ERIC, and Medline (Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt, 2023). These sources are usually
accessible through institutions or personal subscriptions.
Literature reviews include a defined topic and research question, they provide a
summary of the literature emphasizing what is known in the literature and then provides
an overview summary of the research questions (Dodgeson, 2023). The researcher
should identify literature that can help them to answer the research question (Mathew,
2022). They should then summarize the knowledge found in the literature and can
further apply the review to their research (Dodgeson, 2023).
Systematic reviews are studies that use systematic search of literature and further
summarize primary research in away that is nonbiased (Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt,
202). Systematic reviews are seen as superior to primary sources due to the limited
bias in systematic reviews (Mathew, 2022). The key aspects of systematic reviews
include: ask (PICOT or research question), access (obtaining literature to answer
research question), assimilate (find strategies that were used to synthesize primary
research studies), appraise (includes a critical appraisal of literature studies), analyze
(analyze descriptive and quantitative data), and apply (explain how findings can be
applied to patients) (Mathew, 2022).
Meta-analysis is pulling data from different individual studies (Mathew, 2022). The data
may be presented via graphs or plots to allow the reader to easily understand the data.
The meta-analysis includes six questions to help the reader further understand the
data. These include: what is the comparison, what outcome is being compared, how is
the data presented, what statistical model is used, what is the pooled effect, and what
is the heterogeneity (Mathew, 2022).
