“试验报告综合标准”（CONSORT）是为了改善随机对照试验（rct）的次优报告而制定的。然而，自本报告发表以来，人们对报告的质量知之甚少。我们进行了一项观察性研究，以确定自CONSORT声明发表以来随机对照试验中报告关键方法学因素的质量，以及促进遵守CONSORT清单的期刊政策是否与优质报告相关。我们在CONSORT声明之后发表的29种医学期刊的105项随机对照试验中记录了11个关键方法学因素的报道。我们检查了与期刊是否为“CONSORT推广者”相关的报告质量，即在期刊的“作者信息”部分中包含CONSORT检查表，或要求作者、手稿审稿人或文案编辑完成CONSORT检查表。多变量分析控制了期刊影响因子、研究结果和发表时间。报告了11个方法学因素中的6个
The "Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials" (CONSORT) was developed to improve the suboptimal reporting of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). However, little is known about the quality of reporting since this publication. We undertook an observational study to determine the quality of reporting key methodological factors in RCTs since the publication of the CONSORT statement and if a journal policy to promote adherence to the CONSORT checklist was associated with superior reporting. We recorded the reporting of 11 key methodological factors in 105 RCTs from 29 medical journals published subsequent to the CONSORT statement. We examined the quality of reporting in relation to whether a journal was a "CONSORT promoter" as defined by inclusion of the CONSORT checklist in a journal's "information to authors" section or a requirement that authors, manuscript reviewers, or copy editors complete the CONSORT checklist. Multivariate analysis controlled for journal impact factor, study outcome, and time of publication. Six of the 11 methodological factors were reported
