Study Summary
Transparent and accurate reporting is key, so that readers can adequately interpreting the results of a study. Despite improvement with implementation of the CONSORT Statement (CONsolidated Standards for Reporting Trials), there remain major reporting deficiencies in published randomized controlled trials (RCT). The aim of this project is to evaluate whether reminding peer reviewers of the most important CONSORT items (including a short explanation of those items) will result in higher adherence to CONSORT guidelines in published RCTs. During the standard peer-review process, peer-reviewers will be randomly allocated to use either (i) a short version of the CONSORT checklist including the ten most important and poorly reported CONSORT items as defined by a group of experts of the CONSORT Statement (C-short); or (ii) no checklist. The aim is to find an intervention which improves the reporting, making it easier for readers to adequately interpret the presented results.
