Transportability of the comparative effect of finerenone for the treatment of symptomatic chronic heart failure with left ventricular ejection fraction of ≥40%: insights from the FINEARTS-HF trial [PDF]
Aim: Global randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are used to inform reimbursement decisions in multiple markets, meaning the transportability of findings from these RCTs to multiple country-specific populations is critical for evidence-based decision ...

A General Algorithm for Deciding Transportability of Experimental Results
Generalizing empirical findings to new environments, settings, or populations is essential in most scientific explorations. This article treats a particular problem of generalizability, called “transportability”, defined as a license to transfer ...

Moving From Representativeness Toward Transportability in an Era of Digital and Big Data [PDF]
Evidence-based public health demands that study findings provide meaningful insights into improving the health of target populations, making representativeness a widely regarded hallmark of high-quality epidemiological research. However, big data and the

Crossing borders: the need for empirical evidence of real-world evidence transportability in oncology [PDF]
Plain language summary: What is this article about? This article discusses the challenges of using non local real-world evidence (RWE) in health technology assessments (HTA) when local data are unavailable, insufficient, or inappropriate.

Evaluating transportability of in vitro cellular models to in vivo human phenotypes using gene perturbation data [PDF]
Gene perturbation screens (e.g. CRISPR-Cas9) assess the impact of gene disruption on in-vitro cellular phenotypes (e.g., proliferation, anti-viral response). In-vitro experiments can be useful models for in-vivo (organismal) phenotypes (e.g., immune cell
