Abstract

Teredo Naglon*

Observational studies and meta-analyses play a critical role in advancing clinical decision-making and health policy. These research methodologies provide valuable insights into the effectiveness, safety, and comparative effectiveness of healthcare interventions in real-world settings. This article explores the significance of observational studies and meta-analyses in generating evidence-based insights and strategies to inform clinical practice and shape health policies. We discuss the strengths and limitations of these methodologies, their applications in different healthcare domains, and the challenges associated with their implementation. Furthermore, we highlight examples of successful utilization of observational studies and meta-analyses to guide clinical decision-making, improve patient outcomes, and influence health policy. By harnessing the power of these research methodologies, healthcare stakeholders can enhance the quality of care delivery, optimize resource allocation, and promote evidence-based policymaking.
