Provenance: Not commissioned; externally peer reviewed. We propose five principles, each with a rationale for its inclusion. The principles target exploratory and confirmatory types of research and analysis. Similarly, the principles are also applicable for quantitative and qualitative research, although there is more of a focus on assess- ing researchers who engage in empirical research. The principles were formulated with a focus on rewarding behaviors that strengthen research integrity that have an emphasis on responsi- ble research practices and the avoidance of detrimental research practices [3]. We illustrate these principles with examples where we know they exist. These examples are not exhaustive, and many are relevant to more than one principle. Together, they illustrate of a breadth of approaches as to how these principles can operate at the very highest levels of international research. Early

  • Randomised Trials in Context: Practical Problems and Social Aspects of Evidence-Based Medicine and Policy Warren Pearce1*, Sujatha Raman1 and Andrew Turner2
    Pearce et al. Trials (2015) 16:394 DOI 10.1186/s13063-015-0917-5 TRIALS REVIEW Open Access Randomised trials in context: practical problems and social aspects of evidence-based medicine and policy Warren Pearce1*, Sujatha Raman1 and Andrew Turner2 Abstract Randomised trials can provide excellent evidence of treatment benefit in medicine. Over the last 50 years, they have been cemented in the regulatory requirements for the approval of new treatments. Randomised trials make up a large and seemingly high-quality proportion of the medical evidence-base. However, it has also been acknowledged that a distorted evidence-base places a severe limitation on the practice of evidence-based medicine (EBM). We describe four important ways in which the evidence from randomised trials is limited or partial: the problem of applying results, the problem of bias in the conduct of randomised trials, the problem of conducting the wrong trials and the problem of conducting the right trials the wrong way. These problems are not intrinsic to the method of randomised trials or the EBM philosophy of evidence; nevertheless, they are genuine problems that undermine the evidence that randomised trials provide for decision-making and therefore undermine EBM in practice. Finally, we discuss the social dimensions of these problems and how they highlight the indispensable role of judgement when generating and using evidence for medicine. This is the paradox of randomised trial evidence: the trials open up expert judgment to scrutiny, but this scrutiny in turn requires further expertise. Background expertise to interpret and integrate research evidence Randomised trials can provide excellent evidence of with patient values is always contingent on social and treatment benefit in medicine.

  • 2012 January
    Affiliates Newsletter –January 2012 MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR Dear colleague, Welcome to the first newsletter of 2012 – and a happy New Year to all our readers. 2012 is a watershed for us at the JLA: it will be the last full year of the JLA’s first phase of development. Over the past 18 months we have been planning for an important transition. During the 6 years of NIHR and MRC funding support received through the James Lind Initiative, we needed to show that the JLA concept held water and appeals to patients, carers and clinicians, and at least some elements of the medical research community. Due in no small part to the enthusiasm and overt support of you, our Affiliates, we have reached this stage, and, from March 2013, the JLA name and process will be taken over by our colleagues at the NIHR Evaluation, Trials and Studies Coordinating Centre (NETSCC) in Southampton. We are working on the detail for this migration now – but you can be certain that the key elements of what JLA offers will be maintained, and actually enhanced for broader application. Indeed, JLA’s new home could not be more logical, given that so many of the top ten uncertainties generated by JLA Priority Setting Partnerships end up with the Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme (which falls within NETSCC), Over coming months we will keep you posted on developments. But rest assured that, in the meantime, our efforts with individual PSPs and our work to promote the importance of patient, carer and clinician involvement in research priority setting will continue unabated.

  • More Than a Top 10 Report
    More than a Top 10: How James Lind Alliance Priority Setting Partnerships transform research, people and organisations Kristina Staley, TwoCan Associates & Sally Crowe, Crowe Associates September 2019 About this project This project was funded by the National Institute for Health Research Biomedical Research Centre, Oxford grant BRC-1215-20008 to the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and the University of Oxford. The views expressed are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the NIHR or the Department of Health and Social Care. About TwoCan Associates TwoCan Associates was established in 2004 and specialises in promoting and supporting patient and public involvement in health and social care research. TwoCan works with NHS and voluntary organisations to help clarify the purpose of involvement, to improve policy and practice, and develop meaningful and effective partnerships. The Director, Dr Kristina Staley, was joint lead on this project. Kristina has worked as an Information Specialist on several JLA PSPs and is familiar with the issues that arise in developing researchable questions from the Top 10’s. She carried out an early scoping study in 2008 for the JLA, to explore how public sector research funders make use of research priorities and the potential challenges they face. Further information available at: www.twocanassociates.co.uk About Crowe Associates Crowe Associates, established 20 years ago has a strong record of facilitation, consultation and project management in health and social care organisations and especially in patient and public involvement. Sally Crowe, the joint lead on this project, has partnered with NIHR, INVOLVE, research networks and many voluntary organisations over the years on aspects of public involvement in research.

However, there are questions and concerns about the usefulness of preclinical animal research. These so-called translational success rates vary between 0 and 100% and no clear relationship has been established with possible predictive factors such as animal species or field of research. This paper presents the main results of a conference that was organised in November 2019 as part of a research project that focuses on ways to improve predictability of translation from preclinical research to clinical studies.
