The research works contain empirical data analysis included in this work for conducting the systematic review on the basis of inclusion and the exclusion criteria the PRISMA analysis used for the screening of the literature. In the initial stage, 289 primary articles were selected related to this research, and after the removal of the duplicates, the number of articles was reduced to 250; in the next stage of screening, 190 articles were excluded because the researcher did not find these articles relevant to the objectives of the study.
