Researchers can ensure transparent reporting by following these practices: 1. Adhering to Guidelines: Use established reporting guidelines such as STROBE, CONSORT, and PRISMA to structure their reports. 2. Detailed Documentation: Provide thorough and clear documentation of all aspects of their study, from design to analysis. 3. Pre-Registration: Registering study protocols in public registries before data collection begins can enhance transparency and prevent selective reporting. 4. Data Sharing: Sharing raw data and analysis scripts with other researchers can facilitate reproducibility and verification of findings. 5. Open Access: Publishing in open-access journals can make research findings more accessible to a wider audience.
