Select which option from the summaries below feels the most transparent about the evidence base?* This field is required.
The potential for point-of-use water filtration interventions to reduce diarrhea episodes seems well-established in the academic literature. We found three systematic reviews that investigated the effects of filtration on the risk of diarrhea in the general population (Cleland et al., 2015) or in children under five (Darvesh et al., 2017; Wolf et al., 2022). These reviews overlap only partly since they have distinct inclusion criteria and outcomes of interest, but their results converge to similar numbers.
We found three systematic reviews that investigated the effects of filtration on the risk of diarrhea in the general population (Clasen et al., 2015) or in children under five (Darvesh et al., 2017). These reviews overlap only partly since they have distinct inclusion criteria and outcomes of interest, but their results converge to similar numbers.
Using point-of-use water filtration devices seems to reduce diarrhea episodes, judging from most of the academic literature we reviewed. We found three systematic reviews that investigated the effects of filtration on the risk of diarrhea in the general population (Clasen et al., 2015) or in children under five (Darvesh et al., 2017; Wolf et al., 2022). The reviews only included RCTs. These reviews do not fully overlap since they have distinct inclusion criteria and outcomes of interest, but their results converge to similar numbers (~15% reduction in diarrheal cases, 10-15% 95% confidence interval).

Imagine you are reading studies about the effects of antenatal care (ANC) on maternal mortality. You want to find the most informative estimate of this effect to use in your cost-effectiveness analysis. You see three studies, each with a slightly different result. If you had to choose one, which results would you use?* This field is required.
A randomized controlled trial (RCT) found that women offered free ANC had 30% lower mortality (p=0.25).
A within-country analysis found that women who attend ANC eight times have 10% lower mortality than women who attend four times (p=0.04).
A study that used a regression discontinuity design (RDD) to compare maternal mortality before and just after ANC was made free for all pregnant women. The study found a 20% decrease in mortality (p=0.015)
27
Imagine you are tasked with researching the experiences of pregnant people in healthcare facilities, focusing on quality of care. Given time constraints, you identify three studies and want to figure out which one will be most valuable to focus on. If you had to choose one, which of these studies would you pick to read first?* This field is required.
A randomized control trial (n=1000) tested the effect of quality-of-care checklists on pregnant people's reported quality of care. The study was conducted across six facilities in the United States and Mexico.
A study collected views on quality of care from pregnant people across eight countries (n=500). It did so through focus group discussions managed by PhD students.
A survey study applied a detailed questionnaire on the quality of care experiences of pregnant patients across two facilities in Uganda (n=80).
28
Imagine you are seeking to identify how the findings of an RCT on the effects of structured pedagogy carried out in Mexico will apply to an intervention your organization will carry out in Somalia. What process are you most likely to follow?* This field is required.
Focus on the RCT and its methodology, particularly its internal validity (power, statistical significance, etc.), to understand how strong the results are and how much you can trust them in a different context.
Search for other RCTs on the subject that may have been carried out in countries more contextually or demographically similar to Somalia.
Get as much information about how the intervention was carried out in the RCT, list contextual factors that may differ in Somalia, and research how those factors differ between Mexico and Somalia.
29
You’re given a project with a tight deadline. Midway through, you realize that a section of your work could be improved significantly if you re-did it, but doing so would put the deadline at risk. What do you do?* This field is required.
Stick to the deadline and deliver the work as is.
Re-do the section to make it perfect, even if the deadline is missed.
Seek a balance: improve what you can quickly, but prioritize finishing on time.
Ask for more time so you can refine the section properly.
