背景:良好和透明的病例报告:(1)揭示潜在益处、危害的早期信号,以及有关资源使用的信息;(2)为临床研究和临床实践指南提供信息;(3)为医学教育提供信息。当作者遵循报告指南时,高质量的案例报告更有可能。在2011-2012年间,一组临床医生、研究人员和期刊编辑为准确报告病例报告中的信息制定了建议,从而产生了CARE(病例报告)声明和检查表。它们在2013年国际同行评议大会和生物医学出版物上发表,得到了多个医学期刊的认可,并被翻译成9种语言。目的:这份解释和阐述文件的目的是在撰写和发布病例报告时增加CARE检查表的使用和传播。文章设计和设置:CARE检查表中的每一项都有说明并附有已发表的例子。本文件中的解释和例子旨在支持作者撰写高质量的案例报告,并支持编辑、同行评审员和读者对其进行批判性评价。结果和结论:本文以及CARE网站[www.care-statement.org]和赤道网络[www.equator-network.org]提供的2013年CARE声明和检查表是提高案例报告完整性和透明度的资源。(C)2017 Elsevier Inc.保留所有权利。
Background: Well-written and transparent case reports (1) reveal early signals of potential benefits, harms, and information on the use of resources; (2) provide information for clinical research and clinical practice guidelines, and (3) inform medical education. High-quality case reports are more likely when authors follow reporting guidelines. During 2011-2012, a group of clinicians, researchers, and journal editors developed recommendations for the accurate reporting of information in case reports that resulted in the CARE (CAse REport) Statement and Checklist. They were presented at the 2013 International Congress on Peer Review and Biomedical Publication, have been endorsed by multiple medical journals, and translated into nine languages.Objectives: This explanation and elaboration document has the objective to increase the use and dissemination of the CARE Checklist in writing and publishing case reports.Article Design and Setting: Each item from the CARE Checklist is explained and accompanied by published examples. The explanations and examples in this document are designed to support the writing of high-quality case reports by authors and their critical appraisal by editors, peer reviewers, and readers.Results and Conclusion: This article and the 2013 CARE Statement and Checklist, available from the CARE website [www.care-statement.org] and the EQUATOR Network [www.equator-network.org], are resources for improving the completeness and transparency of case reports.
