McQuaid, C.F., Menzies, N.A., Houben, R.M.G.J. et al. (5 more authors) (2024) Improving the contribution of mathematical modelling evidence to guidelines and policy: experiences from tuberculosis. Epidemics, 48. 100786. ISSN 1755-4365
Abstract
We read with great interest the recent paper by Lo et al., who argue that there is an urgent need to ensure the quality of modelling evidence used to support international and national guideline development. Here we outline efforts by the Tuberculosis Modelling and Analysis Consortium, together with the World Health Organization Global Task Force on Tuberculosis Impact Measurement, to develop material to improve the quality and transparency of country-level tuberculosis modelling to inform decision-making.
