Schematic representation of inclusion periods used to assess the impact of the publication of the COREQ on the quality of reporting of the original qualitative studies (COREQ) included in qualitative reviews. For the COREQ, the COREQ score as assessed by the authors of the review was extracted and plotted over time using the publication date of that original qualitative study. All studies prior 2007 (so until and including 2006) were included, as were all those published after 2008 (so from and including 2009)
