One area which needs networking is to have agencies or co-authors to translate non-English publications in evidence synthesis.
Many Systematic reviewers cannot access and translate the relevant articles in other languages and so the scientific world is missing relevant information and clinicians the wisdom from these publications.
Closing this gap is important for evidence based health care and health information dissemination.
