Good to know
- Sources come from a scholarly index and are cited from their abstracts; read the papers before you rely on them.
- The draft is a starting point. Rewrite it in your own words and check your course or journal rules on AI use.
- For a systematic review you need a full search and screening protocol, which this is not.
