SRDR+ 7. Getting Your Results Out of SRDR
Getting your data out of SRDR+ is simple.

You will receive an email (using the email you registered with in SRDR+) when the task is completed. If you have a very large project or the server is particularly busy, you will need to be patient.
Download data from the screening tools: This Excel file contains the data you collect via the Screening tools (both Abstract screening and Full-text screening). This can be helpful when you want to review the results of either of these screening tasks.
