Scoping reviews are intended to help researchers in complex and extensive fields can better address exploratory research questions, comprehensive and systematic understanding of the current development of a field. However, the current scoping review needs to be unified in the implementation process, and the emergence of the JBI scoping review execution process can solve this problem well, which combines and improves the framework of the previous execution process, and regulates the whole process of scoping review production in depth and comprehensively from the aspects of the research purpose and questions, inclusion criteria, search, screening, data extraction, and analysis of the results, etc., and it has a strong authority and professionalism. Therefore, in order to help researchers better carry out and implement the scoping reviews, this paper focuses on the JBI scoping review execution process, and through detailed interpretation of the JBI scoping review execution process and demonstration of examples, it provides references for researchers to correctly apply the JBI scoping review execution process, in order to enhance the transparency and reliability of the research results, and to promote the scientific application of scoping reviews in China.
Meta-research is the "research of research", which aims to explore the existing quality of research in the scientific field, so as to help researchers to comprehensively and systematically understand the current status of research development in a certain field, and to find relevant solutions to improve the quality of research in the field, which is a kind of scientific research concept. The concept of meta-research is widely used in the field of medicine, but its definition and use are still unclear in China. Therefore, this paper will explore the origin of the definition of meta-research, the scope of research areas involved, and the path of its translation and implementation from the medical perspective, to help domestic researchers understand and familiarize themselves with the theoretical basis of meta-research, and provide them with a framework of ideas for the correct conduct and implementation of meta-research, so as to promote the scientific application and development of meta-research in the domestic medical field.
