In a prospective meta-analysis (PMA), study selection criteria, hypotheses, and analyses are specified before the results of studies related to PMA research question known, reducing many problems associated with traditional (retrospective) meta-analysis. PMAs have advantages: they can help reduce waste bias, adaptive, efficient, collaborative. Despite an increase in number health articles labelled as PMAs, methodology remains rare, novel, often misunderstood. This paper provides detailed...
Systematic reviews should incorporate as much relevant evidence possible to reduce bias and research waste increase reliability of results. Clinical trials registers are a key resource for identifying potentially eligible studies, particularly those that unpublished, therefore searching these is mandated best practice systematic reviews. However, the process can be challenging no clear consistent guidance on how do this exists. This paper provides step-by-step conduct searches studies using...
Introduction Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) inform healthcare decisions. It is now apparent that some published RCTs contain false data and appear to have been entirely fabricated. Systematic reviews are performed identify synthesise all conducted on a given topic. While it usual assess methodological features of the in process undertaking systematic review, not consider whether data. Studies containing therefore go unnoticed contribute review conclusions. The INveStigating ProblEmatic...
Child and adolescent obesity is associated with a range of immediate health issues influences in adulthood. The complex nature determinants that contribute to makes it challenging deliver effective public interventions. This research presents insights from system dynamics model childhood aimed at supporting evidence-based decision-making. A was developed using the best available evidence data, input industry experts map hypothetical causal structure factors contributing Australia. calibrated...

Participants All interventional trials registered ANZCTR Random sample those who had retrospectively a between 2010 Main outcome measures Proportion clinical registrations (ie, before after enrolment first...
Abstract Background Heterogeneity in the outcomes collected and reported trials of interventions to prevent obesity first five years life highlights need for a core outcome set streamline intervention evaluation synthesis effects. This study aimed develop use early childhood prevention studies children from birth age (COS-EPOCH). Methods The development followed published guidelines consisted three stages: (1) systematic scoping review trials; (2) e-Delphi with stakeholders prioritise...
Abstract In adolescents and adults, the co‐occurrence of eating disorders overweight or obesity is continuing to increase, prevalence higher in people with weight compared those lower weight. People an disorder are more likely present for loss than treatment. However, there no clinical practice guidelines on how screen, assess, monitor risk context this article, we first summarize current challenges knowledge gaps related identification assessment symptoms seeking Specifically, discuss...
To examine the stroke risks associated with aircraft, road traffic, and railway noise exposure in a large case-control study.
Data unavailability impedes research transparency and is a major problem for individual participant data (IPD) meta-analyses as it reduces statistical power, increases risk of bias, may even preclude completion. The primary objectives this study were to determine IPD sharing plans reported in recently registered clinical trial registration records, how commitment relates characteristics, principal investigators' attitudes, motivations barriers sharing. secondary objective was derive...
