About this map

A map of systematic reviews (or systematic reviews of reviews) illustrating the disadvantaged groups and outcomes reported by reviews by risk behaviours of interest (Tobacco use; Unhealthy diet; Physical inactivity; Excessive alcohol use).

How to use this tool

The evidence map

Each cell classifies the included reviews on the basis of three characteristics: Disadvantaged group, reported outcomes, and risk behaviour of interest (Tobacco use; Unhealthy diet; Physical inactivity; Excessive alcohol use).

Hovering the cursor over a cell will show the number of reviews in that cell. Clicking the cell will open a list of the reviews, colour coded by risk behaviour of interest. To the right of the list is the abstract for each review. Below the abstract are further details about the review, including a DOI link to the full publication (where available).

To the left of the reviews list is a series of classification filters. These filters can be amended should you want to restrict or expand the list of reviews.

Additional options

At the top of the page are a series of tabs providing further options.

Filters: this provides another way to filter reviews, plus the option to switch between three types of visualisation (bubble map, heat map, mosaic, or donut map)

View Records: This provides a list of all included reviews without any filtering
