Importance of the distinction between quality of methodology and quality of reporting
- Abstract:
- The quality of a report of research and its methodological quality are two very different issues that should not be confused. The REMARK checklist is a list of essential elements that should be addressed in a report of a tumour marker prognostic factor study. It is a reporting guideline. As we wrote “High-quality reporting of a study cannot transform a poorly designed or analysed study into a good one”. Further, in the REMARK explanatory paper we stated explicitly that “REMARK is not intended to dictate standards for the quality of research and it should not be used as such.”
