Guidelines for Reporting Health Research is a practical guide to choosing and correctly applying the appropriate guidelines when reporting health research to ensure clear, transparent, and useful reports.
This new title begins with an introduction to reporting guidelines and an overview of the importance of transparent reporting, the characteristics of good guidelines, and how to use reporting guidelines effectively in reporting health research. This hands-on manual also describes over a dozen internationally recognised published guidelines such as CONSORT, STROBE, PRISMA and STARD in a clear and easy to understand format. It aims to help researchers choose and use the correct guidelines for reporting their research, and to produce more completely and transparently reported papers which will help to ensure reports are more useful and are not misleading.
Written by the authors of health research reporting guidelines, in association with the EQUATOR (Enhancing the QUAlity and Transparency Of health Research) Network, Guidelines for Reporting Health Research is a helpful guide to producing publishable research. It will be a valuable resource for researchers in their role as authors and also an important reference for editors and peer reviewers.
"Written by the original guideline authors, the book essentially presents and summarizes the various research reporting guidelines developed over the years in an effort to promote best practices in research reporting." (Springer Nature, 2016)
"In Guidelines for Reporting Health Research: A User�s Manual, the book�s editors, in association with the EQUATOR (Enhancing the QUAlity and Transparency Of health Research) network (www.equator-network.org) and over 60 individual contributors, present a collection of respected and commonly used guidelines for reporting health research, with the purpose of increasing the clarity, completeness, and transparency of reported research. This book is aimed at a range of professions and roles within the medical and academic fields, including authors, editors, peer reviewers, and funders. From a medical writing perspective, it provides some fundamental background knowledge on the necessity, generation and application of guidelines for publishing research...
Overall this book provides a valuable resource for authors, editors, peer reviewers, and funders to ensure the appropriate guidelines are chosen and correctly applied. I would highly recommend it to any medical writer looking to broaden their knowledge of how best to report health research.(Medical Writing, Dec 2016)
