摘要

We have read the interesting article by Moradi et al. “A systematic review and meta-analysis on incidence of prostate cancer in Iran” carefully. It seems that this review, as many other health research reviews published, do not pay proper attention to the reporting quality of systematic reviews according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline.
