Reporting guidelines

How to write up a trial. See Clinical trials for links to registries and information for participants, and Procedures/policies for good clinical practice.

CONSORT
The CONSORT Statement is a set of recommendations to follow when reporting randomised trials. Over 550 journals have endorsed it and therefore expect CONSORT to be followed when writing for publication.

There are separate guidelines, called TIDIER, for reporting interventions more generally.

Equator Network
Reporting guidelines for RCTs and many other study types.   The Equator Oncology Project has a current awareness bulletin, sent by email.

SPIRIT Statement
Standards to use when drawing up a trial protocol.
