PROSPERO is an international database of prospectively registered systematic reviews within health-topics where the review protocols are recorded and maintained as a permanent record. PROSPERO aims to provide a comprehensive listing of systematic reviews registered at inception to help avoid duplication of systematic reviews and reduce opportunity for reporting bias by enabling comparison of the completed review with what was planned in the protocol. PROSPERO is produced by CRD and funded by the National Institute for Health Research.
