Dietary guidelines for optimal health should be informed by systematic reviews of the available scientific evidence, however if the systematic reviews themselves are flawed in terms of design, conduct, or reporting, then this can lead to ineffective and potentially harmful recommendations.
This Study Protocol sets out the proposed methodology for assessing the risk of bias due to unreported and selectively included results in meta-analyses of the association between diet and health-related outcomes.

In Kiribati, malnutrition is the leading cause of death for children below the age of five. In order to tackle this issue, it is crucial to identify the main factors that are hindering this preventable disease, to inform health policy, planning and delivery in the region.
This study investigates the contributing behavioral factors among mothers of malnourished children under 5 years old in Kiribati through focus group discussions with a total of 35 participants.
Introducing the GODAN Gateway
“We are convinced that the solution to Zero Hunger lies within existing, but often unavailable, agriculture and nutrition data” - GODAN Gateway
GODAN (Global Open Data for Agriculture and Nutrition) supports efforts to make agriculture and nutrition-related research data openly available across the world. The GODAN Gateway on F1000Research facilitates this by publishing peer reviewed articles and other outputs in this field, which describe:
- Open data and informatics research projects
- Applications that enable or utilize open data
- Other open knowledge initiatives
If the scope of your research is right, you could benefit from inclusion in the GODAN Gateway, which further boosts the visibility and discoverability of your article.
