Locks study design safeguards and ensures internal validity for clinical research manuscripts targeting JAMA.

The JAMA Study Design skill assists medical researchers and clinician-scientists in locking down study architecture and rigorous internal-validity safeguards for manuscripts submitted to the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). Whether evaluating randomized clinical trials, prospective cohorts, diagnostic-accuracy studies, or systematic reviews, this skill audits pre-specified primary outcomes, intention-to-treat protocols, allocation concealment, confounding mitigation, and power calculations. It helps researchers preempt common peer reviewer criticisms, align with EQUATOR network checklists (CONSORT, STROBE, STARD, PRISMA), and eliminate causal overclaiming in observational studies.

主要功能

01Audits internal validity safeguards for RCTs, observational cohorts, diagnostic tests, and meta-analyses
02Identifies and prevents causal overclaiming, confounding traps, and immortal-time bias in observational studies
03Aligns study designs directly with corresponding EQUATOR guidelines including CONSORT, STROBE, STARD, and PRISMA
04Enforces strict intention-to-treat (ITT) primary analyses and pre-specified primary endpoint verification
05Generates a structured claim-evidence-risk decision ledger to systematically resolve potential reviewer pushback
