Los filtros de búsqueda son estrategias de búsqueda diseñadas para recuperar tipos específicos de registros, como los de un diseño metodológico concreto.

Aquí os dejo varios filtros que he localizado que nos ayudarán a buscar no solo por revisiones sistemáticas, si no también por las diferentes tipologías dentro de la gran familia de revisiones (1).
