Standardizing outcome measurement in dermatology: the CHORD COUSIN Collaboration (C3) Manual and Checklist for the development of core outcome sets
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Inconsistent outcome selection and measurement remain major barriers to evidence synthesis in dermatology. We introduce the CHORD COUSIN Collaboration (C3) Manual and Checklist, developed through an international collaborative process, which consolidates existing methodological guidance into a structured, practical framework to support the development and implementation of core outcome sets. By improving standardization and providing methodological support, C3 aims to enhance comparability across studies and strengthen dermatological research.
