| About | Reviews & Articles | Resources | Training materials | Participants |
New and updated Cochrane Systematic Reviews are published every week. Prior to publication, each new review is discussed at a weekly Analysis of Review Group Output (ARGO) meeting by a group of health and communications specialists at Cochrane UK. The Cochrane reviews listed here are those that have been flagged up during this meeting as being of particular strength, importance, and interest to benefit the evidence base of health-related articles on Wikipedia.
This table presents key information about these reviews to anyone wishing to develop Wikipedia medicine articles with Cochrane evidence. Part of the table is updating weekly by someone at Cochrane UK, the other part is where interested users can help link and develop relevant articles on Wikipedia.
