Reporting Guidelines

Reporting guidelines are standardized recommendations designed to help researchers and writers present their findings clearly and transparently. These guidelines outline essential elements that should be included in reports, such as methodology, results, and conclusions. They ensure consistency and quality in reporting, making it easier for readers to understand and evaluate the work. By following these guidelines, researchers can improve the reliability of their reports, facilitate peer review, and enhance the overall trustworthiness of scientific communication. Common examples include CONSORT for clinical trials and PRISMA for systematic reviews.
