A review of which advocacy interventions work to help abused women, and under what circumstances, and which women are likely to benefit
Almost all Cochrane Reviews use a systematic methodology in which the rules for including a study are clearly defined in advance, the researchers try to find and include all such studies and seek an estimate of the size of the effect of an intervention or the accuracy of a diagnostic test.
