Abstract
A complex process takes place between the collection of information and the creation of knowledge. The organisation of scientific evidence helps us to understand that process and to identify the sources that provide already processed information. Keeping knowledge up-to-date is a necessary but increasingly complicated task because of the large quantities of information and the lack of time among professionals. The article presents the synopsis within the organisation of scientific evidence, explains its use as a tool for the updating and spreading of knowledge and sets out the necessary aspects for the drafting of a structured summary in the form of a synopsis. The CATs (Critical Appraisal Topics) are also presented as a useful and quick tool.
