Shut up and did the impossible:

In the course of seven office days, I browsed through 139 scientific articles and wrote an extremely dense, 8-page summary (actually 5.5 pages of text and 2.5 pages of citations). I ended up using 69 articles and discarding the rest as not useful for my chosen subject.

Unfortunately, I cannot show the text to anyone outside of the company (or our client).
