A systematic review and meta-analysis of diagnostic test accuracy (DTA) aims to identify and summarise evidence on the accuracy of tests, including an assessment of the quality and consistency of the evidence.

The main purpose of the SoF table in a DTA review discussion is to improve ease of interpretation.
