New post on ResToRes' website: Open science and transparency are the strongest tools we have to defend against fraudulent publishing. A @plos.org Medicine editorial argues that making data openly available protects the integrity of science.

New post for ResToRes. Real-world datasets are shaping clinical claims, but data patterns and transparency issues raise serious concerns. Our JAMA Psych letter with @ioanaacristea.bsky.social highlights several red flags in a study using the TriNetX database.

New post on Restores' website: new research finds that "RCTs on labour induction without IPD-sharing are more likely to have lower quality, more trustworthiness concerns, and exaggerated effect estimates than those with shared individual patient data".

How cool it was to chair a top session on advances in clinical trials methodology in @eacpt.bsky.social meeting in Helsinki. 1 picture of a 👍 talk by Lars G. Hemkens, university of Bern. The lecture was about the misuse of routinely collected data and how to use this data better… in RCTs.

Lively plenary (in English) yesterday about psychedelics at the @sfpt-fr.org meeting in Grenoble. In a very hot amphitheatre (despite being equipped with the best Silicon Valley technology, some iPhones couldn’t withstand the heat — or perhaps it was the heat of the debate)... 🧵

New post: "The medical evidence project: an initiative to fish out zombie trials in evidence-based medicine". Flawed studies still distort meta-analyses and clinical guidelines. The medical evidence project joins the effort to clean up the evidence base.

Post about our new letter in @jama.com. The ICMJE should rethink its journal listing system because it may legitimize predatory journals. Predatory journals are the classic wolves in sheep’s clothing. We're offering the ICMJE a pair of shears...

New post on RestoRes' website. "Think. Check. Review?" While predatory journals are known for unsolicited submission invitations, some have adopted more subtle strategies—such as inviting researchers to serve as peer reviewers.
