After screening, it's time to extract stuff! In the Extraction section, you specify which entities you extract, in which stages, with which instructions, as well as whether extractors will be masked and how you deal with reliability and reconciliation.

In my experience developing good definitions of the entities to be extracted is one of the hardest and most time-consuming parts of doing a systematic review - so this section may be one of the hardest to complete.
