Abstract
BACKGROUND: Authors of systematic reviews must select, among several options, the databases for searching articles for inclusion in their analyses. Google Scholar is readily available, easy to use, and widely accepted for everyday information searches, including scientific research. However, there is no consensus for its use as a resource in systematic reviews.
