Treadwell provides access to Covidence, an online platform that aims to accelerate the systematic review process, at no cost to MGH employees. Covidence provides one convenient place to screen citations, assess risk of bias, and extract data.
Treadwell's invitation grants MGHers unlimited reviews. Once registered, MGH employees can invite individuals from outside of MGH to collaborate on projects. Use your mgh.harvard.edu or mghihp.edu email address to sign up. You'll receive an email to finish the process (check your spam folder if you don't receive it):
If you don't have an mgh.harvard.edu email and are an MGHer, please contact us.

LibKey and Covidence integration
Covidence now integrates with a tool called LibKey Nomad. First, download the LibKey browser extension. If you're not familiar with browser extensions, they're also called add-ons or plug-ins (e.g., Honey was a popular browser extension for a while). Once installed, a little green tear drop icon will appear in the upper right hand corner of your browser, near your address bar. Click it and set your library by typing in "Treadwell" like so:
Once that's finished, when you're in the Covidence full text screening stage, you'll see buttons that will either take you to an article or straight to the PDF. The article will need to have a DOI number for this button to appear.
