In preparing for classes concerning research, I not only came across the set of articles that I shared in my previous post but also the following is a 20 part series that appears in the Journal of Clinical Epidemiology. These articles address the GRADE guidelines, which stands for "Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation". These guidelines provide a systematic framework for evaluating evidence in articles and arriving at a decision. As more of these articles come are published I will be sure to post the newest citation to this blog. Some of the articles are e-pub ahead of print, so not all are presently available in the PDF format but will be shortly.
