Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluating non-randomised intervention studies.

TL;DR: The inability of case-mix adjustment methods to compensate for selection bias and the inability to identify non- randomised studies that are free of selection bias indicate that non-randomised studies should only be undertaken when RCTs are infeasible or unethical.
Journal ArticleDOI

Validity of indirect comparison for estimating efficacy of competing interventions: empirical evidence from published meta-analyses

TL;DR: Results of adjusted indirect comparison usually, but not always, agree with those of head to head randomised trials The validity ofadjusted indirect comparisons depends on the internal validity and similarity of the trials involved.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dissemination and publication of research findings: an updated review of related biases.

TL;DR: There was convincing evidence that outcome reporting bias exists and has an impact on the pooled summary in systematic reviews, and empirical evidence suggests that published studies tended to report a greater treatment effect than those from the grey literature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Indirect comparisons of competing interventions.

TL;DR: There is a need to evaluate methods for the analysis of indirect comparisons for continuous data and for empirical research into how different methods of indirect comparison perform in cases where there is a large treatment effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increasing value and reducing waste: addressing inaccessible research.

TL;DR: Three main actions are warranted: academic institutions and funders should reward investigators who fully disseminate their research protocols, reports, and participant-level datasets, and standards for the content of protocols and full study reports should be rigorously developed and adopted for all types of health research.
