   Not a Literature Review Not a Systematic Review

Hi All,

I had a consultation with a PhD student this afternoon who is looking for some assistance publishing a review in the field of public health, specifically the role of lipids in diabetes. 

They posed an interesting question - they've done the review by themself, so it's not a systematic review, but it's a fairly formal literature review (they have between 60-70 sources). They don't want the manuscript to get rejected because it was described inaccurately and wanted to know if there is a term for something that's in between? I had never heard of one, but thought I would pose the question to the community. 

Thanks!

All the best,
