Accurate PRISMA reporting requires meticulous, staged record-keeping. Essential practices include: using a dedicated reference manager (e.g., EndNote, Zotero) with a single, deduplicated library; employing systematic review software (Covidence, Rayyan) to track screening decisions; and maintaining detailed logs at each stage. These logs must record the exact number of records from each database, duplicates removed, titles/abstracts excluded (with primary reasons), and full-text assessments. This documented, auditable trail ensures the diagram is reproducible and accounts for all records
