A 12-month program of work by @flindersuniversity.bsky.social researchers explores real-world complexities translating innovation into sustainable practice in #AgedCare. Read about the work, published in JBI #EvidenceImplementation: https://ow.ly/XZuZ50Xo9XZ
Implementation science in aged care has really accelerated in recent years. This series of papers provides a comprehensive analysis, distilling down a large body of evidence regarding the complex array of factors that can influence implementation in the dynamic aged care sector. With so much happening in the sector, this is very timely." - Prof Gill Harvey

JBI understands that different research questions require the appraisal of different types of evidence and approaches to #EvidenceSynthesis. This is why we have developed 8 rigorous methodologies for systematic reviews, and recommend 3 methodologies external to JBI: https://ow.ly/Earr50Xoab3
JBI logo and 'JBI MANUAL FOR EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS' are displayed against blue background with an abstract suggestion of ripples. The ripples evoke the JBI logo. (The JBI logo depicts a pebble ("evidence") dropping into water, symbolising the ripple effect of positive change driven by evidence.)

According to methodologists, large scoping reviews have 💯 or more evidence sources.
How are the inherent challenges of large scoping reviews managed?

⚠️🧟‍♂️ Beware the #ZombieReview this #Halloween! 🎃

Senior editors respond to paper on redundant systematic reviews and share strategies to prevent zombie reviews (protocols or registrations that are abandoned without a complete review).

❓Do I need to include grey literature in my scoping review?

💬 Yes. To fully map the landscape of a topic & satisfy the reasons for conducting a #ScopingReview you would include grey literature. This can also help address publication bias.👇

Many women continue to die or experience adverse health outcomes in the postpartum period. A systematic review examined the timing of when women die or present complications during this period globally: journals.lww.com/jbisrir/full...

7 steps for operationalising the GRADE-equity criterion to inform guideline recommendations:

1️⃣ Identify disadvantaged populations
2️⃣ Examine available data
3️⃣ Evaluate baseline risk
4️⃣ Assess representation
5️⃣ Appraise analyses
6️⃣ Note implementation barriers
7️⃣ Suggest implementation strategies
Infographic for 7-step process to integrate equity considerations into research & evidence synthesis. Steps include main actions & optional extra approaches that require additional resources Step 1: Identify disadvantaged populations. Specify groups using frameworks like PROGRESS-Plus. Extra: Engage people with lived experience and equity experts; develop a logic model considering context, trends, and health disparities. Step 2: Examine available data. Identify studies analysing prespecified groups, noting reviews and high-quality RCTs. Extra: Use search filters for subgroup analyses, conduct equity-focused systematic reviews, contact authors for disaggregated data. Step 3: Evaluate baseline risk. Screen study references for differences in baseline risk of adverse events across groups. Extra: Contact authors, search for large non-randomised studies, review outcome importance to prespecified groups. Step 4: Assess representation. Identify excluded populations and use Participation to Prevalence Ratio to measure group representation. Extra: Contact global organisations for epidemiological data and authors for participant characteristics. Step 5: Appraise analyses. Evaluate analyses across reported and prespecified groups using appropriate methods. Extra: Contact authors for data and interview stakeholders. Step 6: Note implementation barriers. Assess barriers and retention of prespecified groups in interventions and recruitment. Extra: Review policy and grey literature, create logic models to understand barriers. Step 7: Suggest implementation strategies. Review evidence and propose solutions to overcome barriers in applying recommendations. Extra: Consult individuals with lived experience, engage with vulnerable populations, and survey knowledge users such as through FACE surveys.

Around it are 8 connected sections with titles: "Objectives," "Audiences," "Messages," "Products," "Platforms," "Resources," "Evaluate," and "Restart." Each section has small icons that represent its theme (e.g., envelopes for messages, charts for evaluation). Around the circle are cartoon-style illustrations of diverse people engaging in research, presenting data, and discussing ideas.

Screenshot of JBI's guide for authors: CREATING A VIDEO ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION This guide is for published authors who would like to disseminate their research to a wider audience using digital media. WHAT IS A VIDEO ABSTRACT? A video abstract is like a movie trailer; it introduces a wide audience to a research paper. As with a movie trailer, a video abstract should be short, engaging and easy to understand while summarising key points of the research. A video abstract aims to pique interest and direct viewers to the published article. Video abstracts are associated with an INCREASE in research reports citations, views and social media attention.

As we lead up to #WorldEBHCDay on 20 October, we share resources related to the 2025 theme, 'Collaborative Knowledge Communication'. Look out for toolkits that provide practical guidance, short videos to educate, and impact stories like this one from Cameroon to inspire: jbi.global/our-impact/s...
By applying targeted evidence implementation, this project transformed clinical communication into a key driver of vaccination success. More children are now protected from deadly illnesses like dipheria, tetanus, and hepatitis B. Caregivers feel informed and supported, while health workers deliver both care and understanding. At its core, it's a story of trust rebuilt and communities strengthened through better communication.
