It is not unusual to collect thousands of articles as a result of your literature searches. Citation management software, such as EndNote, Mendeley, or Zotero, are useful in the systematic review process because they help you to easily collect & organize references from a variety of databases & check for duplicate citations (it is important during a systematic review to not count duplicate articles).
