Well-established guidelines and checklists for authors, reviewers, and readers of systematic reviews and scoping reviews are readily available. However, the availability of such for narrative reviews is lacking, including, but not limited to, field-specific guidelines in the field of anesthesia and pain medicine. In this brief article, we review the differences between the major types of reviews, followed by a more detailed description of narrative reviews that clearly differentiates them from other types of reviews. We include a recommended checklist that will aid producers, editors, reviewers, and consumers of narrative reviews as well as examples specific to the field of anesthesia and pain medicine. It is the hope that the guidelines recommended here will aid producers, editors, reviewers, and consumers of narrative reviews in anesthesia and pain medicine, including Adherence to such should help differentiate between narrative reviews and other types of reviews as well as provide consistency in what elements are necessary to include in a narrative review in the field of anesthesia and pain medicine.
针对系统评价和范围综述的作者、审稿人和读者，已有完善的指南和清单可供使用。然而，针对叙述性综述的此类资源却很匮乏，包括但不限于麻醉与疼痛医学领域的特定领域指南。在这篇简短的文章中，我们首先回顾了主要类型综述之间的差异，随后更详细地描述了叙述性综述，明确将其与其他类型的综述区分开来。我们提供了一份推荐清单，以帮助叙述性综述的撰写者、编辑、审稿人和读者，同时还给出了麻醉与疼痛医学领域的具体示例。希望这里推荐的指南能帮助麻醉与疼痛医学领域叙述性综述的撰写者、编辑、审稿人和读者。遵守这些指南应有助于区分叙述性综述与其他类型的综述，并在麻醉与疼痛医学领域的叙述性综述中纳入必要元素时保持一致性。
