That’s what we need to know.

Um, that's not really answering my question. Saying "all industry-funded research is bad" and then justifying it by saying "it's not rocket science" doesn't seem like an evidence-based approach!

I answered. I said - that’s what we need to know - what would the body of evidence look like if we took out industry funded research? Another way to look at it is, if we only accepted Level A & B what would that look like?

Bc, as you know, final recommendations, and pictures of food on a plate, are not fine printed with level of evidence. The public trusts we’ve extended our questioning to put “clean science” forward.

But, as I've said, there are many sources of bias. Excluding one based on "it's not rocket science" doesn't really make sense Also, I imagine there are many Level A industry-funded studies. That's pretty much the point I'm making here

In fact, I'd imagine that guidelines based only on A and B evidence would be far more weighted towards industry, because these RCTs are expensive and often run by industry bodies

And I’m simply asking for the evidence - we can keep hypothesizing - I’m saying - if we are going to use ADG, please, just have a look. Really don’t know why as an epi person you are putting up barriers?

Because your argument for why we should exclude an entire category of research is, as far as I can tell, "it's not rocket science/because we can" That's not great methodology, if so. If I'm wrong, please tell me how

I invite you to look back through our thread. You are pulling out you’re easy wins there. If you were sitting on an NHMRC panel as an epi to discuss how to robust evidence base for ADG ....would you really say “we don’t need to do sensitivity analysis on GRADE, or corp$”

Not at all. The industry funding is included in the grading. It's simply one of many things that define a grade of A, B, C etc. What you're suggesting is to ignore the various grading strategies, which doesn't seem to me to be an evidence-based response
