Mary Dixon-Woods and colleagues (Mary Dixon-Woods, Booth, \u0026amp; Sutton, 2007) identified 42 qualitative evidence synthesis papers published in health care literature between 1990 and 2004. An ongoing update by Hannes and Macaitis (2010)identified around 100 additional qualitative or mixed methods syntheses.
