    <mods:abstract>Background: Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness among young and middle-aged adults with a worldwide prevalence of 160 million.  However, recent studies evaluating the trustworthiness of clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) have revealed conflicting recommendations, discrepancies in evidence quality, a lack of methodological rigor and transparency, and potential conflicts of interest among members of guideline development groups. These findings undermine the validity of CPGs, limiting their usefulness as evidence-based resources for clinicians.</mods:abstract>
