PROSPERO

Also called international prospective register of systematic reviews

PROSPERO is an international registry where systematic review protocols, meaning their planned methods and outcomes, are recorded before the review begins.

In context

You'll usually need this when registering your own systematic review protocol, or checking whether a published review matches its original plan.

Why it matters

It's the international register where systematic review protocols are recorded before the review begins, referenced by PRISMA as best practice.
