What's new

• View options for Reviews folder

  The subfolders and grouping used in the Reviews folder can be set as a user preference (Tools > Preferences : Resources tab). The first level of ordering is through choosing the subfolders of the Reviews folder. This can be set to review stage (e.g. protocol or review), review type (e.g. intervention or RM4 reviews), review status (e.g. active or withdrawn) or none. The second level of ordering allows choosing how to group reviews within the list in each folder, where the same options are available.

• Renamed author document roles

  Two document roles have been renamed: 

  Contact Author     >    Contact Person
  Co-Author          >    Author
  

  RevMan 4 reviews will continue as before with the new labels, so the Contact Person is by definition considered one of the authors. For RevMan 5 reviews, when contact persons are also authors, they should be assigned both document roles. This is the default in conversion.

• City and Country mandatory fields

  The New Person Wizard now requires that City and Country are filled in when a person is created

• Create user accounts in bulk

  Once authors start to use RevMan 5, they need to have a user account on Archie. Accounts are usually created by CRG Super User(s). This can now be done by selecting the persons that needs an account and create a user account for all selected persons.

• Group Authors

  A special type of person record can now be created: Group Author. The option is available as part of the New Person Wizard. Although all groups can do this, only Pilot groups should do so.

• New Review type column

  A column for Review type has been added to the folder view. Tags can be: RM4, INT (RM5 intervention review), DTA (RM5 diagnostic review), MET (RM5 methodology review), OVR (RM5 overview of reviews).

• Search using RevMan 5 fields

  Three new options in Person search for searching for group authors. Review type, Assessed as Up-to-date, and Date Searched added as option for Document search.

• Bug fixes:

  • Removed spaces from file name of RM4 reviews being checked out using Archie (by suing underscore instead). This should help prevent the problems some user have with opening them.
  • Missing labels on graphs with subgroups but no overall totals
  • Editing a person’s entity role did not refresh the Roles tab.

B. Pilot groups only

• Conversion of RevMan 4 Reviews

  Functionality for automatic conversion of RevMan 4 Reviews. Right-click and choose Convert to RevMan 5. Conversion includes updating the reviews with the current author contact details in Archie.

• RevMan 5 Review check-in

  RevMan5 Reviews can be checked in and out of Archie.

• Creating RevMan 5 reviews

  The RevMan 5 review types can be chosen in the New Review Wizard.

  The following rules are checked by the publication wizard:

  • First issue a review is withdrawn, it must have a new citation.
  • First issue a review is reinstated (returned from withdrawn), it must have a new citation.
  • Every citation version requires a new Licence for Publication form.
  • It has been decided that protocols for overviews of reviews should not be published.
  • Diagnostic reviews cannot be published yet.

• Document Properties for RevMan 5 reviews

  The document roles on the People tab are now sorted by byline and the affiliation information is displayed for each role. The History tab has a new review type column. The byline and publication flag is displayed for each version. The Advanced tab shows the two new dates Assessed as Up-to-date and Date of Search.

• View and compare for RevMan 5 reviews

  View includes an option to also see Notes. Compare allows comparing with RM4 format version (by comparing to an auto-converted version of the RM4 version). There are a few attributes where compare does not yet detect changes.

• Revert for RevMan 5 reviews

  When reverting a review that has been converted to RM5 to a version in RM4 format, the new version created will automatically be converted to RM5 (with updated contact details).

• Issue first published editable

  Issues and year for Protocol First Published and Review First Published are editable in Archie for previously published reviews that are now in RM5 format. Edited on Advanced tab of document Properties; each change will generate a new document version.

• Validation of RevMan 5 reviews

  Validation checks for the four RM5 review types.

• Use of Contact Details Wizard

  The comparison of contact details works for RM5 reviews. Republishing a RevMan 5 review (that doesn't have a to-be-published version already) moves all What's new events to History and adds an Amended event with the description 'Contact details updated'. Pilot groups are not able to republish RevMan 4 reviews using the Review Contact Details Wizard

• New publication report

  The new publication flags (introduced with RevMan 5) have been implemented in the publication report. The report has been re-designed and now allows the user to sort the tables listing reviews by their columns.

  You can now assign a role from the Resources tree – and to more than one person at a time. When you right-click the role name, you have the option to assign the role to:

  • 'Begins with' looks in whole field: In free text searches, 'Begins with' didn't only look in the beginning of the field, but found all words beginning with the search string.
    Note that 'Begins with' searches do not work well for Documents as these technically begin with an XML tag, not a content word.
