Objective: During the COVID-19 pandemic, dynamic factors such as governmental policies, improved treatment and prevention options and viral mutations changed the incidence of outcomes and possibly changed the relation between predictors and outcomes. The aim of the present study was to assess whether the dynamic context of the pandemic influenced the predictive performance of mortality predictions over time in older patients hospitalised for COVID-19.

Study Design And Setting: The COVID-OLD study, a multicentre cohort study in the Netherlands, included COVID-19 patients aged 70 years and older hospitalised during the first (early 2020), second (late 2020), third (late 2021) or fourth wave (early 2022).

Identification of latent classes of randomized controlled trials based on integrity and reporting characteristics.

J Clin Epidemiol

December 2024

Centre for Biostatistics, Manchester Academic Health Science Centre, Division of Population Health, Health Services Research and Population Health, University of Manchester, Manchester, UK.

Objective: Reliable, well conducted and adequately reported research is essential for decision-making. This study uses an exploratory clustering approach to identify patterns (subgroups) of trials based on research conduct and reporting characteristics to better understand heterogeneity. Describing features of these subgroups may help elucidate mechanisms of poor planning and reporting that can be acted upon by the research community to improve the research practices.
