Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) remain the most reliable method for controlling confounding and selection bias when evaluating interventions for clinical use.

Great to collaborate with and learn from @epistemonikos as we explore how AI can be responsibly and equitably integrated into Health Policy and Systems Research

AI can support HPSR—but responsible adoption needs safeguards: governance, equity, and data sovereignty. Key point: accelerate steps, yes; replace rigorous methods, no.

The #GRADE evidence to decision (EtD) framework provides invaluable guidance in moving from evidence to recommendations. There are a number of variations for specific areas. This article explains EtD frameworks for #HealthSystem and policy decisions.

Breakthrough for #EBM! #GRADE, leading resource for certainty of evidence and evidence to recommendations now too complex, disorganized. Solution in 7 papers on GRADE essentials “Core GRADE” in #BMJ. This week, introduction to series summarizes content.

Big news for #EBM! Just out in #BMJ, ROBUST-RCT, pristinely developed, innovative, simple, user-friendly instrument for risk of bias assessment in #RCTs far superior to anything before, will become standard outside of Cochrane and in #Cochrane if they let folks use it.

Systematic review of VTE treatment: Shorter anticoagulation (3-6 m) better for all types of VTE. For secondary prevention of unprovoked VTE or VTE provoked by chronic risk factors, indefinite treatment is more beneficial.

Still digesting the whirlwind that was #GES2024…. But one thing is certain, it stayed true to its mission of bringing the evidence community together, I worked closely with colleagues from @cochranecollab @CampbellReviews @ebase_africa & others and it brought so much joy! #EBHC
