Objective: For review authors to learn how to prepare Summary of Findings (SoF) tables for their reviews.

Summary: It has been proposed that all Cochrane reviews should include SoF tables in the future. It is anticipated that these tables will help to improve the quality of reviews as well as greatly improving their accessibility. We will present and discuss the proposed format for Cochrane SoF tables, software for preparing SoF tables, and examples of SoF tables. Participants will have the opportunity to prepare an SoF table for a review.


Level of knowledge required to attend: This workshop is targeted at review authors who have completed a review or are in the process of preparing or updating a review.
