The CONSORT statement is an important research tool that takes an evidence-based approach to improve the quality of reports of randomized trials. The statement is available in six languages and has been endorsed by prominent medical journals such as The Lancet, Annals of Internal Medicine, and the Journal of the American Medical Association. Its critical value to researchers, health care providers, peer reviewers, and journal editors, and health policy makers is the guarantee of integrity in the reported results of research.
This checklist was developed by Dave Sackett, who prepared it for
the forthcoming
3rd edition of Clinical Epidemiology; A Basic Science for Answering
Questions
about Health Care, to be published by Lippincott, Williams &
Wilkins
in 2004.
This guide has been compiled, edited, and revised by Greg Anderson and is intended to provide general content, style, and format guidelines for students learning to write papers in a standard, scientific journal style and format that can be easily adapted to specific journal requirements or disciplinary conventions
