I can not find an article that describe in detail about this particular review design. Can anyone share some references on this review design? Thank you.

To some extent, the gist of descriptive reviews is defined in:

Paré, G., Trudel, M., Jaana, M., & Kitsiou, S. (2015). Synthesizing information systems knowledge: A typology of literature reviews. Information and Management, 52(2), 183-199. doi:10.1016/j.im.2014.08.008
