GALVAO, Taís Freire; SILVA, Marcus Tolentino e GARCIA, Leila Posenato. Tools to enhance the quality and transparency of health research reports: reporting guidelines. Epidemiol. Serv. Saúde [online]. 2016, vol.25, n.2, pp.427-436. ISSN 1679-4974. http://dx.doi.org/10.5123/S1679-49742016000200022.
Scientific writing is the cornestone for publishing the results of research. Reporting guidelines are important tools for all those involved in the process of research production and report writing. These guidelines detail what is expected to be found in each section of a report for a given study design. The EQUATOR Network (Enhancing the QUAlity and Transparency Of health Research) is an international initiative that seeks to improve the reliability and the value of health research literature by promoting transparent and accurate reporting and wider use of robust reporting guidelines. The use of reporting guidelines has contributed to improved reports as well as increased quality of research methods. Reporting guidelines need to be publicized in order to increase knowledge about these essential tools among health researchers. Encouraging their use by journals is key to enhancing the quality of scientific publications.
