The People’s Review protocol: planning an innovative study powered by the public

Involving the public in a systematic review online will enable members of the public to understand and use systematic reviews in everyday health choices. It provides the public with a unique 'learning by doing' opportunity to get to grips with what systematic reviews are and how they are produced. This article describes how we plan to involve the public in The People's Review. It is not a protocol for the systematic review itself - this will be published separately once the project has commenced, and the public have decided the review question.
