What Guidelines Support Transparent Reporting in Epidemiology?
Several guidelines have been developed to support transparent reporting in epidemiology: 1. STROBE: The Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) guidelines provide a checklist for reporting observational studies. 2. CONSORT: The Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) guidelines offer a comprehensive framework for reporting randomized controlled trials. 3. PRISMA: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines help ensure the transparent reporting of systematic reviews and meta-analyses. 4. EQUATOR Network: The Enhancing the Quality and Transparency of Health Research (EQUATOR) Network provides a comprehensive collection of reporting guidelines.
