The Navigation Guide Systematic Review Methodology: A Rigorous and Transparent Method for Translating Environmental Health Science into Better Health Outcomes
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: Synthesizing what is known about the environmental drivers of health is instrumental to taking prevention-oriented action. Methods of research synthesis commonly used in environmental health lag behind systematic review methods developed in the clinical sciences over the past 20 years. OBJECTIVES: We sought to develop a proof of concept of the "Navigation Guide," a systematic and transparent method of research synthesis in environmental health. DISCUSSION: The Navigation Guide methodology builds on best practices in research synthesis in evidence-based medicine and environmental health. Key points of departure from current methods of expert-based narrative review prevalent in environmental health include a prespecified protocol, standardized and transparent documentation including expert judgment, a comprehensive search strategy, assessment of "risk of bias," and separation of the science from values and preferences. Key points of departure from evidence-based medicine include assigning a "moderate" quality rating to human observational studies and combining diverse evidence streams. CONCLUSIONS: The Navigation Guide methodology is a systematic and rigorous approach to research synthesis that has been developed to reduce bias and maximize transparency in the evaluation of environmental health information. Although novel aspects of the method will require further development and validation, our findings demonstrated that improved methods of research synthesis under development at the National Toxicology Program and under consideration by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency are fully achievable. The institutionalization of robust methods of systematic and transparent review would provide a concrete mechanism for linking science to timely action to prevent harm.

In the citing paper
“Recently-developed tools for this purpose have moved away from numeric scores based on checklists (which often combined elements of risk of bias with other considerations such as of applicability) to tools based on assessments within specific domains of bias.”

In the citing paper
“Several such tools for observational epidemiologic studies provide significant methodological advances over previously used tools (National Toxicology Program, 2015, 2015; Woodruff and Sutton, 2014; U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 2022).”
From A tool to assess risk of bias in non-randomized follow-up studies of exposure effects (ROBINS-E) (2024) · cites this paper as Woodruff and Sutton, 2014
In the citing paper
“According to the US Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality and the US National Toxicology Program, funding source is recommended as a factor to consider when evaluating risk of bias of individual studies for selective reporting and then again for evaluating the body of evidence for publication bias [67, 68, 70].”
In the citing paper
“The Navigation Guide already includes both as a risk of bias domain in both human and animal studies [67, 68], while Cochrane and GRADE are considering it, but have not yet adopted it [69].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
