screen_abstracts: Shiny app for screening articles by their abstracts

Description

This is a simple app for displaying bibliographic data one entry at a time, and manually selecting or excluding them. Articles can be ordered by a user-specified column, or or in one of three automated ways: as in the input dataset, alphabetically by title, or in random order (the default).

Usage

screen_abstracts(x, max_file_size)

Arguments

x

An (optional) object of class data.frame or bibliography to open in the browser. If empty, the app will launch with no data. Data can be added within the app via the 'import' button.

max_file_size

Optional argument to set the maximum file size (in MB) that the app will accept.

Value

This function launches a Shiny app in the users' default browser, allowing the user to select or exclude individual articles.

See Also

screen_titles for screening articles in groups rather than individually; screen_topics to view articles as a point cloud.
