What is the importance of the "Utstein-style" in (disaster) medicine? Specifically, I was looking at this publication.

I believe Utstein style is a standardized guideline/format for publication of academic articles in emergency medicine -- it outlines what type of data should be reported. [more here] --- "Collection of the recommended variables will enable intrahospital and interhospital comparisons and support national and international research"
