Reporting Guidelines

To ensure clarity, reproducibility, and scientific rigor, Central Asian Journal of Nephrology requires authors to adhere to internationally recognized reporting guidelines appropriate to their study design. The EQUATOR Network (Enhancing the Quality and Transparency of Health Research) offers a comprehensive set of tools and checklists that support best practices in health research reporting.

Authors are expected to consult and submit the relevant reporting checklist(s) along with their manuscript:

            •           Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs): CONSORT

            •           Observational Studies (Cohort, Case-Control, Cross-Sectional): STROBE

            •           Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses: PRISMA

            •           Qualitative Research: COREQ

            •           Diagnostic Accuracy Studies: STARD

            •           Case Reports: CARE

We encourage all contributors to visit the EQUATOR Network website to access these resources. Proper use of these guidelines supports high-quality submissions and facilitates peer review and editorial evaluation.
