Abstract Synopsis

  • The review analyzed epidemiological studies from 2015 and found that many still used variable selection methods like stepwise and univariate analyses, which can introduce bias and lead to poor conclusions.
  • Although new methods like using prior knowledge or causal diagrams are being employed, they remain less common, and many studies lacked enough detail to fully understand their variable selection process.
  • Overall, the study suggests that there is still significant room for improvement in both the methods and reporting practices of variable selection in epidemiological research.]
