1. Machine learning-assisted literature screening for a medication-use process-related systematic review

   CONCLUSION: This novel approach is applicable to systematic reviews and ongoing review series, including those for the MUP and ACMUP. Pharmacists have a duty to review and incorporate best practices into their organizations to improve the efficiency and cost of care, optimally utilize technology, and reduce the potential for medication errors. This methodology will allow evidence syntheses for the MUP and other disciplines in pharmacy practice to be published more expeditiously by saving...

2. Impact of oncology pharmacy services on the management of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting: A systematic review and meta-analysis

   CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated the important role of clinical pharmacy services in controlling CINV and enhancing the overall treatment experience for patients with cancer. Further studies with standardized pharmacists' services and outcome measures are needed to validate our findings.

3. Effect of pharmacist care on clinical outcomes and therapy optimization in perioperative settings: A systematic review

   CONCLUSION: Whilst there is some evidence of positive impacts of pharmacist intervention on clinical outcomes and optimizing drug therapy, this evidence is generally of low quality and insufficient volume. While this review suggests that pharmacists have essential roles in improving the care of patients undergoing surgery, more research with rigorous designs is required.

4. The efficacy and safety of direct oral anticoagulants in the treatment of the acute phase of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia: A systematic review

5. Publication of pharmacy resident research projects: A systematic review and meta-analysis

   CONCLUSION: Pharmacy resident research project publication rates are low at 13%. Furthermore, studies reporting project publication rates over time suggest a neutral or negative trend in publication rates despite an exponential increase in the number of pharmacy residents.
