What are the ICMJE Recommendations for Reporting Epidemiological Studies?
The ICMJE emphasizes the importance of transparent and complete reporting of research findings. In epidemiology, this means providing comprehensive details about the study design, data collection methods, statistical analyses, and any limitations. The use of reporting guidelines such as STROBE (Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology) is encouraged to enhance the clarity and reproducibility of observational studies.
