Question and search design
Define the question and select the databases and collections to search. Record search terms and limits, with criteria for including or setting aside material.
Medicine and science
See which studies answer your question
Atlas screens the literature around your question and extracts the details needed for comparison. You receive an evidence table or literature map with links to the sources, ready for your professional review. The work can also include organizing supplied data or preparing a technical presentation.

How the work begins
Similar titles can conceal different questions
A useful comparison needs more than a row of conclusions. Who was studied? What counted as an outcome? How long did follow-up last? Those details determine what a specialist can reasonably compare.
Atlas records the search and selection decisions, then extracts study details into an agreed format. Findings stay beside their limitations. A focused review is not called a systematic review unless the documented method and qualified oversight support that description.
Examine the linked example before deciding whether this approach suits your project.
Examine the medical evidence mapFrom a literature question to a comparison you can examine
Study screening
Record why a source is relevant, what question it can answer, which version is authoritative, and which apparently relevant studies do not fit the defined scope.
Evidence extraction
Record each study’s design and population, then its comparator, endpoints and results. Keep funding information and limitations beside the findings.
Comparison and synthesis
Identify which findings can be compared. Differences between studies and unresolved disagreement remain in the table rather than disappearing into a summary.
Data and figure support
Organize supplied data for tables or figures. Check labels and units against the record, and keep the underlying source identifiable.
Technical delivery
Prepare an evidence map, research guide, poster, briefing deck, or defense presentation around the client’s own analysis and professional responsibility.
Show the connections as well as the findings
A visual research map can connect the question to sources and findings, with separate labels for interpretation and unresolved points. The format and level of source detail are agreed for the project.

What you can receive
- Literature maps and evidence tables
- Annotated source collections
- Study comparison workbooks
- Technical summaries and research guides
- Figures and technical diagrams
- Posters and presentations, including defense materials
What you can bring
- A clinical, biomedical, engineering, or scientific literature question
- A partial bibliography, article collection, prior review, or search export
- Supplied tables, measurements, notes, draft figures, or experimental data
- A manuscript, poster, lecture, defense, or technical presentation in development
Questions this work can address
- Which studies actually address the defined population, intervention, exposure, comparison, or outcome?
- How do definitions, methods, endpoints, time horizons, and sample characteristics affect comparison?
- Where does the literature converge, disagree, or remain too limited for a reliable conclusion?
- What evidence belongs in the final review, figure, teaching document, or research presentation?
Evidence support is not clinical advice.
Atlas does not diagnose, recommend treatment, perform clinical interpretation, provide statistical or laboratory judgment beyond the agreed competence, or substitute for qualified review. The client remains responsible for research ethics, scientific authorship, clinical use, and any institutional or publication requirement.
