Background
Much biomedical research (9 of 10) is observational. The reporting of such research is often inadequate, Which hampers the assessment of its strengths and weaknesses and of a studys generalizability. However, in published observational research important information is often missing or unclear. (Erik et al., 2007)
An analysis of epidemiological studies published in general medical and specialist journals found that the rationale behind the choice of potential confounding variables was often not reported (Pockok et al., 2004). Only few reports of case-control studies in psychiatry explained the methods used to identify cases and controls (Lee et al., 2007). In a survey of longitudinal studies in stroke research, 17 of 49 articles (35%) did not specify the eligibility criteria (Tooth et al., 2005).
STROBE
The Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE). What should be included in an accurate and complete report of an observational study. Covered three main study designs: cohort, case-control and cross-sectional studies
A checklist of 22 items (the STROBE Statement) that relate to the title, abstract, introduction, methods, results and discussion sections of articles. Eighteen items are common to all three study designs and four are specific for cohort, case-control, or cross-sectional studies. To improve the quality of reporting of observational studies
Introduction
1. Background/rationale:
besar masalah: prevalensi/insidensi/jumlah, dibandingkan dengan sebelumnya, di tempat lain, target program & dampak Elaborasi: substansi & metodologis Kesenjangan: substansi, metodologis, konfirmasi penelitian sebelumnya
2. Tujuan Utama penelitian (primary outcome): paling diminati peneliti, desain dirancang utk menjawab pertanyaan, sbg dasar perhitungan besar sampel
CA OBSERVATIONAL STUDY IN EPIDEMIOLOGY
1. DESKRIPSI UMUM
Desain Populasi target, populasi terjangkau, sampel Teknik sampling Variabel bebas, tergantung Hasil utama (primary outcome)
2. Validitas interna, hubungan non-kausal
Pengaruh bias Pengaruh perancu Pengaruh peluang
3. Vaiditas interna, hubungan kausal
Temporabilitas Asosiasi kuat Dosis respon Konsistensi Spesifik Koherensi Biologically plausible
4. Validitas eksterna
Apakah hasil dapat diterapkan pada subyek terpilih Apakah hasil dapat diterapkan pada populasi terjangkau Apakah hasil dapat diterapkan pada populasi luas
Kriteria Kausasi

CA MASIH DIPERLUKAN KOMPONEN:
1. IMPORTANCY : kepentingan hasil penelitian secara klinis (effect size) 2. APPLICABILITY : transportability, kondisi pasien, kemampuan pelayanan, ekonomi, sosial budaya, agama.
Kesimpulan
Dokter harus mampu melakukan telaah jurnal dengan baik. Observational Study in Epidemiology STROBE CA ada 3 komponen (VIA):
Validitasvaliditas interna non-kausal, validitas interna kausal (eksternaBradfold-Hill criteria), validitas. Importancy Applicability
