JBI recently began the process of updating and revising its suite of critical appraisal tools to ensure that these tools remain compatible with recent developments within risk of bias science. Following a rigorous development process led by the JBI Effectiveness Methodology Group followed when updating the JBI , this paper presents the revised critical appraisal instruments for quantitative study designs. We detail the key changes made to the tools and highlight how these changes reflect current methodological developments in this fieldtool for the assessment of risk of bias for randomized controlled trials.

Assessing the Common tool structures and approaches to risk of bias of quantitative analytical studies: introducing the vision for critical appraisal within JBI systematic reviews

Munn et al 2023

A key step in the systematic review process is the assessment of the methodological quality (or risk of bias) of the included studies. At JBI, we have developed several tools to assist with this evaluationassessment: implications for systematic reviewers

Stone et al 2024

There are numerous tools available to assess the risk of bias in individual studies in a systematic review. These tools have different structures, including scales and checklists, which may or may not separate their items by domains.

From critical appraisal to risk of bias assessment: clarifying the terminology for study evaluation in JBI systematic reviews

Stone et al 2023

As evidence synthesis methodology has advanced, guidance for the critical appraisal of primary research has emphasized a distinction from the assessment of internal validity required for synthesized research. This assessment is conceptualized and branded in various ways in the literature, such as risk of bias, critical appraisal, study validity, methodological quality, and methodological limitations.
