What Are Some Examples of Epidemiological Standards?

Several well-known standards exist in the field of epidemiology, including:
- ICD Codes: The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) provides standard codes for diseases and health conditions, facilitating the comparison of data across different regions and time periods.
- STROBE Guidelines: The Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) guidelines offer recommendations for reporting observational studies to enhance transparency and reproducibility.
- CONSORT Guidelines: The Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) guidelines aim to improve the reporting of randomized controlled trials (RCTs).
