“…Through domains two (stakeholder involvement), four (clarity of presentation), and five (applicability) of the Agree II evaluation, the intelligibility of these food guidelines can be observed. Stakeholder involvement had an average adequacy of 56%, indicating participation by just over half, correlating with results from other Agree II reviews [ 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 ]. This domain includes an item related to the population’s understanding of the document, and a systematic review concluded that despite a growing trend in some populations’ knowledge about FBDGs, the degree is still low and does not automatically translate into understanding [ 12 ].…”

“…Regarding the Agree II evaluations, the least scored domain by the food guidelines was the methodological structure of the documents (domain three) and the reference in building the presented recommendations. Systematic reviews applying the tool observed similar results, with this domain showing some of the lowest adequacies compared to others [43][44][45][46]. These data show a weakness in presenting this scientific methodological support for the guidelines.…”

Food-based dietary guidelines (FBDGs) are tools for promoting healthy eating habits. For the population of children under two years old in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), there is a lack of reviews analyzing the quality of these guidelines. The objective of this systematic review is to evaluate publicly available FBDGs for the population under two years old in LAC until mid-2023. Guidelines aimed at caregivers of children were included, sourced from government websites in LAC countries and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) portal. Documents targeted at healthcare professionals were excluded. For qualitative analysis, the Agree II guidelines assessment tool and the FAO guide principles for developing healthy and sustainable diets were used. The results showed that more recently released and revised FBDGs with a greater number of pages obtained better scores in both assessments. Additionally, out of the 32 LAC countries, only 13 had these FBDGs available on websites for public access. As a limitation, this study faced challenges in standardizing the searches on government websites. The authors emphasize the need to develop FBDGs for the population under two years old that align with current health and sustainability needs and promote health education.

“…However, most of them failed to describe the panel composition, use the systematic review and rate the certainty of the evidence for the synthesis of the recommendations and trade-off between desirable and undesirable outcomes of an intervention. 30 We advise readers that those eight domains should only serve as a framework for trustworthiness determination instead of a fixed tool to rule in or rule out guidelines. Trustworthiness is a continuum, and each dimension can be fully or partly met.…”

Trustworthy evidence-based versus untrustworthy guidelines: detecting the difference

Guidelines are essential tools in healthcare decision-making. Trustworthy guidelines inform clinicians not only on the direction (against or in favour) and strength (strong or weak/conditional) of recommendations but also on the certainty of the underlying evidence. Developing trustworthy guidelines requires panellists with clinical and methodological expertise who consider patients’ values and preferences. Adherence to trustworthiness standards remains variable; clinicians should, therefore, be able to distinguish trustworthy from untrustworthy guidelines. In this paper, we offer eight domains of disparities between trustworthy evidence-based guidelines and less trustworthy guidelines.
