  • A Systematic Review Protocol for Crime Trends Facilitated by Synthetic Biology Mariam Elgabry1,2 , Darren Nesbeth2 and Shane D
    Elgabry et al. Systematic Reviews (2020) 9:22 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13643-020-1284-1 PROTOCOL Open Access A systematic review protocol for crime trends facilitated by synthetic biology Mariam Elgabry1,2 , Darren Nesbeth2 and Shane D. Johnson1* Abstract Background: When new technologies are developed, it is common for their crime and security implications to be overlooked or given inadequate attention, which can lead to a ‘crime harvest’. Potential methods for the criminal exploitation of biotechnology need to be understood to assess their impact, evaluate current policies and interventions and inform the allocation of limited resources efficiently. Recent studies have illustrated some of the security implications of biotechnology, with outcomes of misuse ranging from compromised computers using malware stored in synthesised DNA, infringement of intellectual property on biological matter, synthesis of new threatening viruses, ‘genetic genocide,’ and the exploitation of food markets with genetically modified crops. However, there exists no synthesis of this information, and no formal quality assessment of the current evidence. This review therefore aims to establish what current and/or predicted crimes have been reported as a result of biotechnology. Methods: A systematic review will be conducted to identify relevant literature. ProQuest, Web of Science, MEDLINE and USENIX will be searched utilizing a predefined search string, and Backward and Forward searches. Grey literature will be identified by searching the official UK Government website (www.gov.uk) and the Global database of Dissertations and Theses. The review will be conducted by screening title/abstracts followed by full texts, utilising pre-defined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Papers will be managed using Eppi-center Reviewer 4 software, and data will be organised using a data extraction table using a descriptive coding tool.

It identifies mechanisms through which EM is expected to produce reductions in EMMIE recidivism rates, under what conditions, and at what cost. Reoffending Methods: Eligible studies were identified through a search strategy and quality appraised. The review uniquely Recidivism combines findings of a meta-analysis alongside a realist-inspired qualitative synthesis. Meta-analysis Results: 34 studies met our inclusion criteria. Meta-analytic results from 18 studies found that although overall Systematic review Logic models the effect of EM on recidivism was favourable, heterogeneity between studies meant that the effect wassig- nificant for studies using hazard ratios but non-significant for those using proportional data. Findings indicated statistically significant reductions in recidivism for sex offenders; when EM is compared to the alternative of prison; and in European settings. Situational and behavioural mechanisms that might plausibly reduce re- cidivism were identified. EM is cheaper than prison but more expensive than ordinary probation orparole. Conclusions: The study illustrates the complexity of implementing EM.
