Abstract: Writing a comprehensive review article in biological sciences, ethnobotany, or pharmacology requires a systematic approach to data collection. This involves defining search strategies, identifying relevant databases, establishing inclusion/exclusion criteria, and assessing study quality. Knowing how to collect data effectively is crucial for producing a high-quality review article that provides valuable insights and informs future research. This overview outlines a methodological framework for data collection, highlighting key steps, databases, and software tools to facilitate the process, ultimately enabling researchers to synthesize and analyse data, identify gaps, and draw meaningful conclusions.
