Health research covers a broad spectrum of activities, from mechanistic studies of basic sciences to clinical, epidemiological, and technological assessment investigation. Research should markedly impact the societal actions and decisions of policy-makers, and have the final goal of producing results that solve real-world health issues. The process underlying medical research and its application requires a remarkable and challenging translational effort and the establishment of solid partnerships with a variety of stakeholders and decision-makers. Approaches to ease the challenge must be directed to the rapid transfer of the acquired knowledge to everyday clinical practice. However, limited information is provided by the current and previous literature on this topic…
