ABSTRACT

The Cochrane Library of Systematic Reviews is published quarterly as a DVD but monthly online (http://www.thecochranelibrary.com). The January 2013 issue (1st DVD for 2013) contains 5328 complete reviews, 2291 protocols for reviews in production, and almost 19,600 short summaries of systematic reviews published in the general medical literature. In addition, there are citations of 681,000 randomized controlled trials, and 15,700 cited papers in the Cochrane methodology register. The health technology assessment database contains some 12,000 citations. One hundred and twenty-two new reviews have been published in the previous 3 months, of which five have potential relevance for practitioners in pain and palliative medicine. The impact factor of the Cochrane Library stands at 5.715. Readers are encouraged to access the full report for any articles of interest as only a brief commentary is provided.
