Review the TRIPOD Statement concept paper written by Collins et al.

Origins:

In 2011, 24 expert statisticians, epidemiologists, methodologists, clinicians, and medical journal editors met at the University of Oxford to conceptualize how to improve the reporting of multivariable prediction model development, validation, and improvement. This convening led to the development of the TRIPOD Statement, which was published simultaneously in 2015 by 11 endorsing journals. One additional journal published another paper further elaborating on the TRIPOD statement.
