Answer to Question 1

A, B, D, E
Standard components of a systematic review to consider are: 1) process for initiating; 2) process for finding and assessing individual studies; 3) process for synthesizing the body of evidence; and 4) standard reporting format. Rigor used in development varies considerably among reports.
