Systematic review shows that industry-funded trials perform equally or even better in terms of risk of bias when compared with investigator-initiated RCTs. Our commentary highlights the real issue of industry-funded trials — spin. 📝 cambridge.org/core/services/…

🚨 Excited to share our new paper in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine 🚨 Our systematic review & network meta-analysis compares preoxygenation strategies for critically ill patients needing intubation. NIPPV tops HFNC & facemask in reducing hypoxaemia. 🔍 Study Highlights • Systematic review

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.

#GRADE, indeed #EBM, will never be the same. GRADE papers have become too complex and difficult to navigate. The remedy: a series of 7 papers in the #BMJ laying out the essentials of GRADE: Core GRADE. This week, an overview of Core GRADE. bmj.com/content/389/bm…

#CoreGRADE was recently introduced in The BMJ in response to the need for a concise, well organized exposition of the key elements of #GRADE that users require to make optimal judgments about certainty of evidence and strength of recommendations. bmj.com/content/389/bm…
