The development of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines is a sophisticated and systematic process, often requiring multidisciplinary efforts. The traditional approach to developing and updating clinical practice guidelines is usually time-consuming. These limitations obstacle the effective use of guideline recommendations and efficient transformation of most recent research evidence into practice. The MAGIC system is a novel method system for rapid creation and dissemination of high-quality clinical recommendations, including rapid creation of trustworthy recommendations, thus ensuring the scientific and efficient production of clinical practice guidelines; facilitating rapid dissemination and dynamic updating of clinical practice guidelines through recommendation release system (i.e., MAGICapp); and helping promote the production of relevant high-quality original research evidence by identifying the insufficiency of evidence in the process of creation of guideline recommendations. Ultimately, a complete closed-loop digital and trustworthy evidence ecosystem is developed. In order to further promote the effective transformation of research evidence into guideline recommendations, MAGIC China Center was established. We anticipate that the Center will assist the further development and effective use of clinical practice guideline in China.
