Publication of Clinical Trials in Scientific Journals: Editorial Issves (original) (raw)

2006, Revista Española de Cardiología (English Edition)

AI-generated Abstract

Publication of clinical trials (CT) in scientific journals has become increasingly important, particularly since the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) recommended that all CTs be registered prior to publication. The objective is to enhance the credibility of trials by ensuring that their methodology, results, and scientific data are accessible to the scientific community. This article reviews biases affecting CTs in medical research, offers recommendations for improving CT descriptions in journals, discusses implications of registration initiatives, and suggests adaptations for editorial policy at REVISTA ESPAÑOLA DE CARDIOLOGÍA. Additionally, it emphasizes the minimum data that should be registered in CTs to improve transparency and accountability in clinical research.
